Stephen Colbert’s Presidential Endorsement

In a public chat with the New York Times' Frank Rich last night in Manhattan, Stephen Colbert shocked the nation by endorsing a Presidential candidate that was not himself:

"I would love to see a President Huckabee because if our president were named 'Huckabee," how bad could anything really seem?” he said. “It'd be as if the entire country was animated by Hanna Barbera. Can you imagine the Huckabee Monument?"
