Democrats Open Up to Laughs, Republicans on Lock-Down

Who else watches Daily Show on their computer or mobile? I don't have time or money for cable TV until they get "menu" purchasing.

Then the music begins, the cheers start, and Jon Stewart starts telling jokes. It may all look like comedy, but Democrats are taking "The Daily Show" and its audience pretty seriously. Republicans as of Wednesday had provided no similar access in St. Paul, though Ms. Corn said she remained hopeful. "The Daily Show" is skipping its normal Labor Day off to kick off coverage of the GOP convention in St. Paul Monday through Thursday next week.
