Herman Cain's 1991 pizza song performance, after just discussing the fact that the man doesn't even think we should have exceptions for incest and rape when it comes to a woman's right to have an abortion, gave me nightmares going back to George W. Bush and the media painting him as just some regular Joe most Americans would like to have a beer with.

MITCHELL: But we can't deny that he is entertaining, whether it's in a debate or this, some tape the Daily Beast dug up, from 1991 from the Omaha Press Club event, clearly a gridiron type show. And this was Herman Cain, I think parroting himself. […]

MITCHELL: He's got some chops! I mean he can sing!

CILLIZZA: Look, he can definitely sing and I will say this Andrea, I don't want to analyze too much into a guy singing an ode to pizza, but can you imagine Mitt Romney doing that? Can you imagine Mitt Romney doing that? People like this about Herman Cain.

MITCHELL: Well, that's why he's so likeable.

CILLIZZA: He's a regular person. You know... these things are minor things and no one's going to vote for him because he sang an ode to pizza, but he is as close to a talking to, understanding regular people as possible in an electoral cycle in which people hate politicians and all the things that come with them. So, I think this is great. Herman Cain says play it and you can hear me sing... I've got a good voice and it's good for me in general.

MITCHELL: Indeed it is!
