Colbert Rigs New Vote in Pennsylvania
Stephen Colbert, ah, is there anyone funnier? Adam and I love the Colbert Report, it is a staple on our DVR menu - and not just because it inexplicably tapes the same show six times a day even when set-up to tape "new shows only". Colbert's wit and humor are timeless and it is amazing the command he has over his followers. I suspect he is probably under investigation by the FBI/CIA for being a cult leader.
Well, Colbert is at it again. He was on the Today Show this morning peddling his influence to get people from across the nation to vote in a Pennsylvania straw poll so that the voters in PA aren't the only ones deciding the election. The concept is you donate money to PA schools in honor of your chosen candidate in order to register your voice in the election. Already nearly 2000 people have donated close to $200,000. (For the record, Obama supporters are once again embarrassing Clinton supporters in the numbers race.)
Here is the video from this morning - hilarious as always. And below is a link to the poll in case you want to vote.



I like Colbert, but his wit is a little too hard-edged for me sometimes. I like Jon Stewart's style a little more. They're both funny guys though.
