For the win!
From Slate.com: Apparently I find Obama's supporters' cockblocking of Colbert to be rather unfunny.
Colbert gets Obama'd: Stephen Colbert's bid for the White House ended this week when South Carolina refused to add him to their primary ballot. According to reports, phone calls to prominent South Carolina Democratic Party officials from Obama supporters were partly to blame.
Jim Newell at Wonkette was far from surprised: "Who can blame the Obama supporters for their worries? The big demographic here is college students, who base their votes on which candidate is (a) more of a black person and (b) more of a late night comedian." Kinaesthesia over at Colbert fan-blog the No-Fact Zone found the move particularly humorless: "I guess he'd rather see the 'Report' back on the air than have to deal with Stephen in his voter pool."
WHAT UP, SHOUT OUT!
