Colbert for President in 2008

Stephen Colbert running for US President (in South Carolina only) is akin to Rick Mercer running for Prime Minister of Canada by running as an independent MP.

Sadly, Hillary Clinton will win the presidential election instead. The Canadian equivalent to that, is Belinda Stronach winning a party leadership and becoming Prime Minister. Except in this case Stronach is the accused adulterer, and not Clinton.
