The Colbert Bump... Off The Ballot

No joy for the heroes.

"Stephen Colbert’s satirical run for the presidency has run into its first roadblock -- his bid to be on the ballot in the South Carolina Democratic presidential primary was rejected on Thursday," The Politico reports.

"The Democrats had to decide whether they considered Colbert to be a bona fide Democrat who is nationally viable and has spent time campaigning in the state."

The ballot-inistas and the vote-stapo may be trying to keep the runaway Colbert train down, but if he FEELS he's on the ballot, then he's on the ballot! That's truthiness, and it smells like victory to me.
