Colbert Announces Presidential Bid

[Chojin]

I honestly think Colbert and Stewart are better fit to run the country than most of our candidates anyway.

Besides, the state of the union address would be awesome.


And the debates!

A.) I think this sort of satire does a great service to overall political truth.

B.) I doubt very much he'll get an inordinate, or even statistically significant amount of support in actual votes.

C.) Getting on the ballot in most states is not an easy thing to do

Anybody care to take bets on which candidate, kingmaker or spokesperson gets publicly angry with him first, or better yet, accuses him of making a mockery of our political system?

And side bets on who HERE thinks this is ill advised or unfunny.
