Colbert ponders W.H. bid By: MJ Lee January 12, 2012 07:37 AM EST With a poll showing him beating Jon Huntsman in South Carolina, comedian Stephen Colbert asked his fans Wednesday night if he should jump into the race and he promised a special announcement coming Thursday night. Colbert was agonizing over which Republican presidential candidate to support ahead of the South Carolina primary in his search for a non-Mitt Romney candidate when the answer suddenly came to him: Oh my God! Its me! It all makes so much sense! (M)y heart always leads me to me! And I am so not Mitt! Colbert said as his fans broke into applause and cheers. But wait, wait, wait, thats crazy! These guys have been running for a year now. How can I ever compete with an established candidate like Jon Huntsman? Of course, Colbert was shown earlier this week polling ahead of Huntsman in South Carolina 5 percent to the former Utah governors 4 percent. Huntsman had laughed off the Public Policy Polling surveys findings on Tuesday, saying, When I was on his show recently, [Colbert] promised me the Colbert bump I think were getting that here in New Hampshire. Now were going to be looking for the Colbert bump in South Carolina. Colbert had this explanation for why the Colbert bump hasnt been working its magic on Huntsman: Im sorry Gov. Huntsman. I guess the Colbert bump reflected off of you and bounced back to me. That happens in the rare instances when my guests are whiter than I am. The comedian promised his fans that he would go home, sit down and talk it over with my money, before making a major announcement ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/message.cfm/messageid:345259 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/unsubscribe.cfm
