Basically, the guy had probably heard this years ago when his grandkids were watching Pokémon: The Movie 2000, remembered the quote, and had mistakenly attributed it to the Summer Olympics. But we know the truth.
For comparison, here's the song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iqyZ1hbwWDw
It just happens to be the first line of the song.

Re: GOP presidential hopeful quotes song line from Pokémon movie
Found this in the comments of the article:
♫ I want to be the very best
Like Ronald Reagan was
To cut taxes is my quest
And fight sharia laws
I will campaign across the land
Stumping far and wide
The G.O.P. must understand
Tea Party's rising tide
G.O.P.! (Gotta bag 'em all)
I'm Herman Cain
I once ran a pizza chain
G.O.P.!
Shooow your discontent
And make me the President
G.O.P.! (Gotta bag 'em all)
I'm colored too
Not liberal like you-know-who
Tea bag me, I'll tea bag you
GEEE OHHH PEEE!
Gotta bag em all! G.O.P.! ♫

I was going to post a semi-clever pun but this blows away anything I could come up with.
