First off, let’s not even get into another “general election analysis”, let’s just peep two of the best at the game, as they comment the exit polls as it happens.

Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert teaming up for their election night special: Indecision 2008.

And as a special throw-in for this occasion, I give you the audiobook version of The Daily Show’s own America (The Book): A Citizen’s Guide to Democracy Inaction of 2004. A school textbook on the history of democracy and what America’s made of it, with the typical Daily Show twist. (More here)

Mind you, despite the heavy tongue-in-cheek approach and the hilarious sections from the foreword by Thomas Jefferson to the study questions and countless aside boxes, this is actually very enlightening and of great pedagogical value. The book is extremely well-made, the Daily Show writing staff and graphics department had a field day/year with this. So it’s well worth the buy, btw. But here’s to you folks who do not read, the audiobook for your ears. Enjoy.
