Given the choice between Ron Paul and Stephen Colbert, I’d write in “Don’t Tase me BRO!”

Colbert in a heartbeat. Paul’s foreign policy is just plain dangerous.

Ha ha, the Bircheresque Crank gets beat by a joke candidate. His cultish supporters are going to love that.

I had to look twice to see if I had written that myself. ;-)

They’re f’ing nuts. It’s a game now, to see how many of them you can bait with provocative blog posts. Heeeee.

I’d vote for Colbert over either one of them without hesitation, and I think he’s by far the most overrated person on teevee.
RP and DK are despicable and dangerous. Colbert would at least make a point (how silly the election process has become).

Re: “FLILF”–The fact that it was discussed even on Comedy Central shows the state of our tacky, tasteless, disrespectful popular culture. (Which is why I don’t watch regular teevee any more. The news reporting on it disgusts me enough.)

While Colbert may be a clown, his supporters are just lightheaded nitwits.

Paul draws a whole different animal; societal outcasts with bad attitutdes.

The actualy newsworthy item from this story is that %21 of Americans can’t follow directions. The question was, who would you vote for, Paul or Colbert…

“Given a choice between Colbert running as a Democrat and Republican Congressman Ron Paul, 36% of voters prefer Colbert while Paul attracts 32%. Twenty-one percent (21%) say they’d vote for some other candidate while 10% are not sure. “

I’d like to see that, too, personally.

An 11% congress and a talk show crank as president. That seems to be the government we deserve.
