Colbert Gaining in Polls. Seriously.

By Eric on October 26, 2007

Just say it a few times: President Stephen Colbert. President Stephen Colbert. President Stephen Colbert. Sounds ridiculous, but it could happen:

Less than a week ago, shortly after he announced for president, Stephen Colbert was favored by only a little more than 2% of Democrats as the favorite for the nomination. Now, a Rasmussen Report national telephone survey has found that he gains 13% of voters in a matchup with Rudy Giuliani and Sen. Hillary Clinton.
…
If he keeps gaining over 10% a week, Colbert should be leading the field before November is out. 

(And E&P is already a little bit outdated. That Facebook group, “1,000,000 Strong for Stephen Colbert,” has 1,022,064 members as of noon today.)

“Leading the field?” Holy shit.
