Indecision 2008 Presents a Liveblog of Indecision 2008
Wrapping up the night, I have to say, this has been an amazing day. I am so happy to have been able to cover tonight. I feel a pride for my country for the first time in my adult life. I am speechless.
It's been two years of campaigning and it hasn't always been the most fun. Or the most intelligent. Or the most honorable. But tonight, I feel so much of that washing away.
At the risk of sounding cheesy or corny, we can all be extremely cynical from time to time. I am guilty of my fair share of sarcasm. What I am about to say is completely without sarcasm. I believe things will change.
Goodnight. Don't worry. Tomorrow, I'll return to my dumb, sarcastic poop jokes.
11:05 PM: I just came happiness over how good this is.
11:03 PM: Moewbrit Thatcher. Best. Line Ever. That is all.
10:59 PM: The President of U.S. is Barack Obama. I have chills. I am so happy. We are all so happy. Let's all go riot out our happiness now!
10:56 PM: All these states are going Obama. Tomorrow, we're all going to wake up and it's gonna be Red Dawn.
10:55 PM: Yes! That CNN hologram shit was hilarious.
10:50 PM: Can we all just talk about how great Larry Wilmore and Wyatt Cenac just were? That was hilarious. It's C for Cenac!
10:49 PM: I was hoping the secret was The Secret.
10:45 PM: Damn! I was really hoping racism was over now. I guess we'll just all have to keep hating each other for the time being.
10:43 PM: "You don't know much about terrorists do you?" Best. Line. Ever.
10:41 PM: MC Escher is my favorite rapper (dumb joke alert!)
10:33 PM: That baby's shirt costs the same as the Dad's shirt? That's like 75% less fabric! I am clearly missing the forest for the trees, cause this is hysterical.
10:30 PM: I'm live-blogging too! Colbert and I are not Amish! There is a need for added value stuff! I need to have a job!
10:27 PM: Sarah Palin and DAG in that commercial! Fucking sweet! I want all of Comedy Central to have a giant crossover- ala Marvel's Secret War (even tonight, when all of NY is drinking to celebrate, I'm clearly not getting laid).
10:25 PM: The Palin 2012 "flat tax" jokes almost makes me like her. I want Sarah Palin to have her own talk show on Bravo that my gay friends love to watch.
10:24 PM: Not Indecision 2008: America's Choice related, but Patton Oswalt's dog is the best. I love his dog more than I love my dog, and I fucking love my dog.
10:20 PM: I just realized that being China's pet or a Nigerian scammer is still better than being a contestant on that new Paris Hilton best friend show.
10:16 PM: Did he just say shit?! S-Bomb? YES!
10:15 PM: Jason Jones just disappeared for a second and came back. He has super powers! He is a super-delegate (dated joke alert!)
10:12 PM: I thought New Hampshire's motto was Live Free or Die Harder.
10:06 PM: I don't perform oral voting, because my jaw hurts afterward and I get pubic hair in my mouth.
10:03 PM: Did you notice they are wearing the same tie? They are so color coordinated!
10:00 PM: It's starting! It's so nice seeing them together!
Hey, Gonzalo here and I'm going to be liveblogging The Daily Show and Colbert Report election night extravaganza, Indecision 2008 (hey, that's our name too): America's Choice.

They did show it, but it was on concurrent with the live broadcast of Obama's acceptance speech. So, if both were live, how many of you blew off Obama on the East Coast to watch Comedy Central's brilliant programming plan? Kudos Stewart, Colbert, and Comedy Central for executing the perfect F*Up
I'm severely disappointed. I was looking forward to watching the election night "indecision 2008" show. However, it's not showing. Instead, I get to watch lame-ass futurama and southpark. What gives?
It isn't on in Hawaii-I waited at 8, 9, qnd wqw horrible people in a cartoon using the n word- Wha??? I looked forward all day to seeing something that would at least give me a laugh and show not everybody in this country can't see how they're being shafted, and lift my profound sadness at how this country is deteriorating- and Nothing. I am not a nuthead, but I want to say Why?? Where is the show?? Why???
How do you get a comment on here?? I wrote of my profound disappointment to not have the Show go on at 8, 9, in Hawaii as promised- tired ,sad sad sad at the idiocy of the whole thing hoping that there would be a redeeming light touch, a good laugh or even a feeble one as there has been throughout all these hideous weeks- from Jon and Stephen- NOTHING I think something bad is going on too- I think it is starting.
“The Daily Show is with us today. Jon, where are you? Where is Jon? Is Jon here with us today? Jon, I thought you were here today. Alright, you are all Jon the Daily Show bummers today"
seriously, we missed you in oakland, ca tonight – 2 promised showings and each were south park reruns…
we resorted to watching the horrible low budget fox news graphics for laughs.
"I feel a pride for my country for the first time in my adult life. I am speechless."
I began to read your post, but was stopped immediately by this statement. I feel greatly for you, and sincerely hope the Comedy Central network begins to screen its bloggers to ensure quality from here on.
An adult American lacking pride in their country should not be given this sort of "air time".
Oi Trenton Goodwin: thanks for trying to spoil that very true statement. Psht.
This IS the first time since the Cold War that perhaps hte USA will stop starting useless wars and massacring overseas. I wouldn't be proud of a country that murders people overseas senseless and if you are, well honey there's something very wrong with your wiring.
Never showed up in Arizona. I am feeling sad to have missed the true power in fake news.
I have often been proud of the USA during my lifetime, but I have decidedly found little to be proud of these last eight years. Hopefully we will now return to a path that allows pride again and respect from our allies worldwide. There will be less material for The Daily Show now though.
I can't believe it wasn't showing in so many places! I am in Canada and I watched it… twice
