Just watched a hilarious 30 minutes of comic coverage of the Democratic
Party convention with Stewart's sidekicks doing a kind of Ali G routine
with delegates.
While listening to a woman identified as a "Kerry spokesperson" explain
how Kerry had rallied the party, blah-blah, Stewart's reporter (a bald
guy--don't know his name) began yawning ostentatiously. When asked him
if she was boring him, he said without skipping a beat, "It's not you,
it's just what you are saying."
After shaking James Carville's hand, another reporter, Richard Colbert
(?) told him that he was great in "Slingblade".
The fact that this show is wildly popularly with young people gives me
hope for the future.
