Stephen Colbert for Senate

Holy cow. Satirist Stephen Colbert is in the lead for the soon to be empty Senate seat in South Carolina. That's according to a poll by the Public Policy Polling. Here's the report by Huffington Post. I should note the poll reflects that Colbert does not get Republican support. Finally, some conservatives get the joke. Colbert plays a fake conservative to make fun of their idiocy much like the character of Archie Bunker. Last week, Colbert did comment on the Senate seat.
