Bush v Bush

The Daily Show's John Stewart hosts a debate featuring Governor George W. Bush from 2000 and President George W. Bush of 2004. The gloves come off when the President must debate his policies from attacks by...himself? I got a good laugh out of this one. I recalled that the audience for The Daily Show, though Bill O'Reilly would have your think they are stoned slackers, are actually:

78 percent more likely than the average adult to have four or more years of college education, while O'Reilly's audience is only 24 percent more likely to have that much schooling.

Plus, the network noted, "Daily Show" viewers are 26 percent more likely to have a household income more than $100,000, while O'Reilly's audience is only 11 percent more likely to make that much money.

So the guy watching Stewart may not only be smart, but may also be rich.

That's an aside in the MSNBC story about how The Daily Show's viewers are very politically savvy.
