Fans of the television show “Friday Night Lights” who are keeping an eye on the 2012 presidential race may have noticed that Michele Bachmann’s husband, Marcus, looks an awful lot like the character Buddy Garrity.

On the campaign trail, a reporter showed Marcus an image of Brad Leland, the actor who plays Buddy, a gruff car salesman and football-loving father on the show. “He does look like me,” Marcus said upon seeing the photo, according to the New Yorker. “My goodness, you guys are quick, sharp, and complimentary so far—just until I get to know you long enough, and then you might even tell the truth.” After a pause, he added: “Which I’m really afraid of!”
