Vote Colbert

Ah, yes, the political season is over for most of us, but in South Carolina, there is a big election coming up.

You do remember that Stephen's sister is running, right??? Yes, Elizabeth Colbert Busch is running for Congress.

There's all sorts of connections that can be made about that. Governor Nikki Haley could have appointed Stephen Colbert to the open seat in the United States Senate back a while ago, but instead she appointed Tim Scott. That left his seat open in Congress.

Now, Stephen's sister Elizabeth Colbert Busch is running for that seat against a long list of people. It would be very interesting if, even though Governor Nikki Haley was not willing to appoint a Colbert, the people of South Carolina appointed a Colbert by voting for Elizabeth.

You can do a little bit of reading about some of the people involved by reading here about Nikki Haley, and just a little bit about one of the other candidates, Mark Sanford. Of course there is lots more information about this candidate out there, for example his Appalachian Trail escapade. It coined a new euphemism for, well you remember, right? You can also find out who he asked to head his campaign here at HuffPo.

And then go visit Colbert Busch for Congress. We already know who got to be Pope, so this is the next event that everyone will be watching.
