For those of you who've been following the blog, you know that I'll be heading down to Philadelphia for the Colbert Report on Thursday. So far, my buddy Dave is driving down and - as of today - my friend Conor is still a "maybe" for claiming the other two tickets. I may just get that cheesesteak after all...
Last night, Colbert kicked off the proceedings in fine form. That's him singing the harmony part to The Star-Spangled Banner with R&B star John Legend (and holding his own, I might add). He interviewed Chris Matthews. They're keeping a pretty tight cap on the upcoming guests, but Stephen made a pretty strong plea for Obama. However, the star of Hardball threw a changeup, revealing that Clinton may be making a surprise appearance. You are allowed to laugh at the notion that the enjoyment I derive from my much-anticipated hajjedy (comedy + hajj) might be tempered by the experience of having to watch Hillary attempt to be funny. Still, no matter how audacious it may be, I'm hoping for an upset from Barack. In more ways than one.
