Watch: 'Bigfoot' Stars in Political Ad

In an amusing combination of the paranormal and politics, a  Congressional candidate in Minnesota has released a rather clever  commercial that stars Bigfoot. Produced by the campaign of Democrat Dean  Phillips, the odd ad takes aim at his opponent, GOP incumbent Erik  Paulsen, in the race for Minnesota's 3rd Congressional District seat.  Arguing that his Republican adversary has been particularly elusive when  it comes to meeting with constituents, the commercial enlists the  legendary cryptid known for being 'hard to find' in an ingenious way of  making that point to viewers at home.

The ad begins with Bigfoot musing that "I thought I was good at hiding  ... then Erik Paulsen comes along." In a nod to the decades-long search  for Sasquatch, the creature subsequently marvels "how can you have tens  of thousands of people looking for you all the time and not one of them  find you?" Puzzled by Paulsen's purported 'ability' to go unseen, the  Bigfoot then sets out on a mission to prove that the politician actually  exists.

What follows is a wildly funny twist on the reality show staple of  'Bigfoot hunting' with the Sasquatch lurking in the lobby of a  pharmaceutical company and hoping to capture the 'mythical' Paulsen on  film. As if to confirm Phillips' charge that his opponent is indebted to  big business donors, the creature celebrates when his stakeout at the  corporation takes only seven minutes rather than the weeks that he had  expected. The commercial culminates with the candidate being 'captured  on film' and the stupefied Sasquatch declaring "Erik Paulsen really  exists."
