EDITED TO ADD: exact dialog at bottom

Summary:

After ridiculing election coverage, they show a clip of Bill O'Reilly resorting to guttural sounds to evaluate Mitt Romney's performance in Michigan.

Stewart then interviewed John Olivier, who defended O'Reilly and said he could evaluate the entire race using guttural sounds, at which point Jon Stewart quizzed him on all candidates.

Oliver responded negatively to all candidates except Paul, to whom he responded favorably. At this point, Stewart points out that Ron Paul is doing better than Obama in polls! And then added, to EDITED/SNIPPED: exact dialog below.

Well worth watching. Anyone have a link to the vid?

EXACT DIALOGUE:

Stewart: "What about Ron Paul?"
Oliver: "oh! oh! oh!" (best translated as something like 'oh, he's interesting! i kind of like him')
Stewart: "He's actually polling better than any other candidate against President Obama!'
Oliver: "ah hah, there we go' (plus agreement while Stewart talking)
Stewart: "of course, mainstream establishment doesn't seem to in any way' (broken english accurate)
Oliver: shakes finger, 'ewwwwwww'
Stewart: 'So i guess we're not supposed to talk about Ron Paul'
Oliver: 'nah nah nah' (dismissively)


ADDENDUM:
Ron Paul also in the moment of zen

Blitzer interviewing:
Blitzer: We asked some of Rick Santorum's supporters why they believe that Ron Paul would be in some sort of conspiracy to help Mitt Romney, and you know what they've said to me? Congressman?"
Ron Paul: short laugh
Blitzer: "You want me to tell, you right?"
Ron Paul [huge smile]: "Well, if you want to."

LOLZ

Lmao, did you guys watch the latest one on the page? Lol he was going over AC on CNN walking into 'The Cube' as CNN calls it and Jon is like 'The Nerd Terrarium'. Hhaha i nearly spit up my coffee.

It's so fucking stupid what they do, making it out to be some 'hi tech war room' like it's the damn CIA. Bunch of a clowns , honestly :rolleyes:
 
Stewart is great, I love his style.
Lots of humor blanketing a nice hunk of truth.
 
Now this has me wondering... how is it that the Rebel Alliance - remnants of the old Galactic Republic, "a long long time ago in a galaxy far, far away" uses the metric system? How did Luke Skywalker come to measure things in meters?
