Is Herman Cain serious about Cain TV?

Rachel Maddow noticed while Cain was still in the hunt for the Presidential Nomination how piece by piece, his whole platform and his talking points were one-by-one lifted from current pop culture. She theorized he was actually doing a performance art project, and having a grand laugh at the GOP for swallowing it.

Cain’s new Cain TV Project makes me wonder if Ms. Maddow wasn’t exactly right. Is this all just a tremendous send-up of GOP vulnerability to certain push-button topics that send them into a seething rage? Is Herman Cain serious?

Here’s a link to his Web Site announcing the Cain TV Project. http://www.hermancain.com/
