The Colbert Bump is Money, Bro
From Indecision 2008:
According to a report published by the American Political Science Association, via Wonkette:
Democratic politicians appearing on the comedy teevee show The Colbert Report got an average 40 percent bump in contributions in the month following their visit, while Republican politicians got an average of nothing. This just goes to prove that Republicans do not watch The Colbert Report, or if they do, they end up contributing to Democratic politicians.
Of course, percent is a myth perpetuated by the liberal elite ratio-rati, but this latte-sipping, Volvo-driving decile is alright by us.
