Since Comedy Central filed an injunction against youtube hosting any of its content, its best to go directly to the source.\n\nGo to www.comedycentral.com and watch all Daily Show and Colbert Report for free in their Videos sections (there's a link right there in the middle of the main page right now). And if you have a fast connection, go to their "Motherload" video component to see complete episodes. For some reason, Internet Explorer works better than Firefox there too....

I voted Straight democratic ticket for the first time in my life, because I am fed up with the soaring national debt, the focus on the war on terror, focus on tax cuts instead of providing incentives for lower income Americans, the scandals in the Republican party, and the sad state of the American family values. I also feel that it is dangerous to have no checks and balances between the two political parties when one party dominates the legislative and executive branches of government. My primary source of information is the Internet. We do not have TV and I very seldom read newspapers.

I think it is an interesting article, proving that both sides do the exact same thing to each other.  Can't we all admit that?  or no, this wil be bush bashing time again.  \n\nI just wonder if Democrats don't do as well as expected, they will play the "republicans cheated" card.  mark my words that will happen if they don't gain as many seats as expected.

I doubt you always hear that.  I'm diehard conservative, and have loved John Stewart throughout most of his career.  Idisagree with him 99.9% of the time. As I always say to my friends, (I live in MAss so most of my friends are liberal lol) "I don't need to agree with you to like you."  I watch daily Show almost every day.  There are days when he is too bust screwing around with punditry to the point where I aint amused so I switch off, but those are rare.\n   As fo Colbert, I think he carved himself a hilarious nitch.  Often, his satirical right wing rantings are my actual opinion, and I feel I'm being personally spoofed.  I love it.  \n    So I don't know who is saying that as far as who you talk to, but I have a good guess your are making a presupposition and posting it as such.\n\nEDIT-I have seen more than one conservative on the Daily Show I might add. Rick Santorum comes to mind.  Joe Scarborough was on Colbert recently.  Stewart and Colbert , as a side note, treated conserative every bit as respectfully as any typical guest.

Man, am I ever tired of hearing all this whiney cry-baby liberal rhetoric garbage from those whose candidate lost the last election by rules that have been in place for decades.\n\nBut... if you feel your vote doesn't count, by all means, don't show up at the voting booth!

Well… I’ll be thoroughly depressed if the Dems don’t do it…. \nBut either way… I’ll still be thrilled to stop receiving truckloads of smear-campaign crap in my mailbox. I swear… as far as our local races go, you’d think they were campaigning for meanest school-yard bully. In fact, they ought to consider that next time around… at least then someone would actually deserve to win!\n\n\nedit:  Yippee! It's tomorrow... gosh that felt nice going to bed knowing the dems took the house then waking to find Rumsfeld resigned, then checking back later and seeing that lovely headline 'Dems take Senate'! Haven't smiled so much at the news in a loooooooooooong time... definitely a happy sueflower today =)

He is very much a Democrat.  He roasted Bush a few months ago - you should watch that tape. It's funny, embarassing (to Bush) and it is realistic and truthful at the same time.

89% of the people on vote.com thought he owed the American people and apology.  I was emailed back by a Senator today, that Kerry did apologize and has decided to conclude his campaign and he is not running in the 2008 Primary.  So you are certainly in the minority.  I'm vote democratic.  I was very upset that he didn't make a distinction between the powers at be, and the troops who are fighting so that we have the freedom of speech to be discussing this. Even his own party, seperated themselves from him. No matter how devoted I am, I think for myself. Most Americans were disappointed, to say the least.  Ofcourse, the troops were dileberately misspelling their message.  Some of the kids that went to school, who didn't do well, are selling drugs and carry guns, I wish that would be changed also.  They just go in and out of jail. They are not fighting in the war to protect the U.S.  No matter how I feel about the war, I will never say anything against the troops, I was terrified in a 21 story building on the day of 9/11.  I couldn't work there anymore.  I don't think any of this is funny.  But if the troops want to say anything, they have certainly fought, and earned the right to!!!!!!!!

The dems won a majority, not unanimously.\n\nNote to "Oh Yea":\nThis is not a democracy.  It is a representative republic (and only, according to Ben Franklin, "if you can keep it"). The ruling of the majority vote in a true democracy is equivalent to two wolves and one sheep taking a popular vote as to what is for dinner.  We are a nation of constitutional law which must be maintained no matter what the popular opinion is.

They got a "thumpin' ".\n\nBut seriously, it's not all Republicans ... and second, we Democrats have had our bitter moments too.  (The 2000 election, in particular, was a brutal pill.)\n\nPeople have to remember that part of being in a democracy is that sometimes your guy loses.  It's the ability to say "we lost this time, but THAT'S OKAY" that distinguishes a democracy from, say, the Sunnis vs. Shiites ... where the majority assumes that its role is to begin oppressing the minority, and the minorty assumes that its role it to try and overthrow the majority by force.\n\nAnd when you are the majority, you need to govern with the knowledge that *someday you will be the minority again.*  So you need to treat the minority with the same respect you hope to get in return someday.  I look at Karl Rove, Tom DeLay, Trent Lott, Dennis Hastert, etc. and say, they forgot got that.\n\nI.e. they are bitter because they are expecting us to behave like just as big a group of a**holes as they were.  \n\nI personally hope we prove them wrong.

He conceded!  \n\nDidn't have a small enough margin to call for a recount. And Allen is due to concede, as well, so it's officially a Democratic majority in the Senate!

Will the mainstream press characterize the shift in power as the "voters having a temper tantrum" as they did back in 1994?\n\nWill the looney left finally admit that the GOP hasn't been stealing elections and that the Dems really have been losing elections the last 12 years?

Nope, that was in 2002 & he lost.  Chris Bell a former Houston City Councilman & former member of Congress is the Democrat Nominee.  He will face incumbant Rick Perry & Independents(Maybe) Carole Keaton-Strayhorn & Kinky Friedman.
