With the writer's strike, late nite talk shows are what to watch if you like TV...
I taped Jon Stewart and Colbert so I understand and relate to the last comment made here, and actually held back. Let's face it, Colbert and Stewart and funny, tell it like they see it in satire, so usually a good laugh even if it is at ourselves. Good stuff.

So why would The Daily Show, on the 6th put up a picture showing the "remaining candidates" and the shot was of McCain, Romney and Huckabee? Colbert's satire of Ron Paul put me just a little on edge, wasn't his normal style, and agreed, his writers aren't there, but Stewart? To leave RP out completely was unbelieveable to me, even for Comedy Central.

I kept waiting for his picture to pop up on the screen to join the others, with some funny remark... it didn't.

WTF
 
Result of (a) assuming he won't win; or (b) the fact that they are, in general, liberals of the Obama-brand, and probably don't like some of Paul's conservative views.

Or just carelessness; I couldn't see it being a deliberate act (in the sense of "keeping out Paul") on Stewart's part.
