Politics: John Kerry on The Daily Show

Link via Bo, though obviously not the commentary.

Kerry wasn't funny, but I left that clip feeling like Kerry talked straight. Which is a smart thing, because the 18-34 demographic just doesn't go for the mixed metaphors and empty abstract ideas that fill political rhetoric on both sides. This appearance won't go down in the books beside the Bill Clinton playing sax on Arsenio Hall incident, but Kerry certainly established himself as a clear choice from his opponent.

And as far as John Stewart obviously working with a liberal slant, come on kids. As long as Fox News is on the air, the Right can shut their collective pieholes about the liberal mainstream media. One episode of the O'Reilly Factor out-biases an entire day's worth of NPR, CNN, and the New York Times combined.
