Kerry will get tons of free media from Daily Show appearance
Smart move. So was introducing the FEAR AND SMEAR theme.

Kerry is going to pound AWOL into the ground.

3. Coming on tonight!
Stewart said on last night's show "No, really, he's gonna be here. I don't think I'm being punk'd" or something like that.

2. I hope Jon Stewart makes lots of time for Kerry tonight...
.. YOu know.. I'd be SOO HAPPY if they dumped that lame-ass show folloing Daily Show, and let Daily Show be an hour. I can't even stomach the teasers for that show running after it..

I do agree that Kerry is hitting TDS at just the right time. He needs to be ALL OVER the airwaves (and cable waves) these next few weeks.. doing those types of shows. Letterman, Oprah, Larry King-Not-Live-For-Everyone. Anywhere that Kerry can be, and can talk about what is happening to him, etc.

I can't WAIT for tonight!!

8. "Tough Crowd"
Isn't it appropriate that it would be named for an audience that never laughs?

5. Do you think Bush* would dare appear on The Daily Show?
Kerry is no dummy and America is beginning to realize this. Jon seemed almost as deferential to Kerry as he was to Clinton. He seemed almost awed that Kerry would come on his show. Jon is about the best thing we have going and we all need to watch because he/they catch a lot of stuff that slips through the cracks. Jon rocks.

6. When will the DSOPPD be on?
You know, Jon talked about them last night...the new group of Bush supporters, the "Drunken Sons Of Privilege for Plausible Deniability."

LOL! One of Jon's best lines ever!

11. That's better than Bob Novak, "Douchebag for freedom"
Jon Stewart is the funniest man in America right now, at least until Chris Rock does another stand up special on HBO.

13. No, Jon Stewart is the MOST IMPORTANT funny person in America right now.
The funniest person is, and always will be as long as the SNL curse doesn't get to him, Will Ferrell.

7. Which is exactly why the people who are griping that he
isn't getting his message out are way off base. Americans trust 'normal' news channels less than ever and Kerry knows this.

10. It's an upside-down media landscape.
One of the last places to get real news is on a news satire show, while mainstream news carries fake stories. How important is Laci, really?
