PAC-man

It would take too long to go into all the details and developments that have gone down involving Stephen Colbert and his Super PAC (Political Action Committee). However, his latest move may be the best yet. Colbert is trying to get on the ballot for the Republican South Carolina primary, however because he missed the deadline, South Carolina won't let him. So now his Super PAC (which is now being run by Jon Stewart - who's TOTALLY not coordinating with him) has begun to run ads encouraging South Carolina voters to vote for Herman Cain, who is on the ballot despite the fact that he dropped out of the race last month. This whole thing has really put a light onto what a sham the whole campaign process can be. And while thinking about it can make you sad, Colbert and co. have sure found a way to make it hilarious as well. Anyways, here's the ad that's now running.
