There’s only one more week until we can cast our metaphorical votes by going to see The Campaign in theaters, and the face-off between Ferrell and Galifianakis is sure to be hilarious. A common theme in this film seems to be being getting comedic moments from the characters being brutally honest, and this new clip featuring Marty Huggins’ confessions on television is no different. He unveils some pretty embarrassing revelations, and even manages to mispronounce the name of one of the most famous singers of our time. Check it out below!

Synopsis: When long-term congressman Cam Brady (Will Ferrell) commits a major public gaffe before an upcoming election, a pair of ultra-wealthy CEOs plot to put up a rival candidate and gain influence over their North Carolina district. Their man: naïve Marty Huggins (Zach Galifianakis), director of the local Tourism Center. .
At first, Marty appears to be the unlikeliest possible choice but, with the help of his new benefactors’ support, a cutthroat campaign manager and his family’s political connections, he soon becomes a contender who gives the charismatic Cam plenty to worry about. .
As election day closes in, the two are locked in a dead heat, with insults quickly escalating to injury until all they care about is burying each other, in this mud-slinging, back-stabbing, home-wrecking comedy from “Meet the Parents” director Jay Roach that takes today’s political circus to its logical next level. Because even when you think campaign ethics have hit rock bottom, there’s room to dig a whole lot deeper.
