Yawn.
why is colbert running as a democrat?
he plays a republican on TV. and he's running IN CHARACTER.
@2 - He's running as both.
@2: Probably because the republicans are much less likely to play along.
On the one hand, Colbert makes the road to 2008 a hell of a lot more entertaining, but the drawback is that everyone wants to be in on the joke and you end up getting the type of lameness personified by Tim Russert last weekend. I mean, it's nice that Edwards's campaign has a sense of humor. I guess they're damned either way. Either they look stuffy and uncool, or they try to be funny and look uncool. Ah well.
Yeah, he's running on both tickets.
I thought only GWB clone Sen McCain could do that?
well everyone knows that the essence of politics is based on how cool you look. it's been the trump card of american politics since forever.
Hey, I thought Edwards campaign response was hysterical! And it takes guts to go up against the best of 'em.
it must really suck to be Chris Dodd on Meet the Press this weekend when Tim Russert shows the current standings and you're polling at 0% while a fake candidate is getting 2.3%.
as a Democrat Colbert only needs 15% to get delegates at the convention. as a Republican he would need to win out right, the odds are far better as a Dem
Every candidate is looking for that saxophone to play on the Arsinio Hall show. Although playing to a less populist tune, this is as close as we've seen this election.
Or something.
Stphen planned to run as both but It was far cheaper to run as a democrat, go fig.
