Barack Obama on The Daily Show with Jon Stewart - How Did He Do?

POSTED BY: TheInDecider

Barack Obama's last television appearance on the night before the Pennsylvania primary was on The Daily Show with Jon Stewart.   After a few rough weeks on the campaign trail including a vicious debate on ABC, will his appearance on The Daily Show be enough to push him over the edge in Pennsylvania?

 Various polls say various things, running up to the primary, so the question is, will his appearance give him the advantage?   Was it enough that he put to rest the rumors regarding his white slave trade plans?

How do you think he did?



Also, yes, Primanti Brothers appears to still be open.

  1. Barack Obama has a good sense of humor that is very natural, which will help him tremendously on the campaign trail and he will be getting the nomination. He is so down to earth and Hillary is just waaaaaaay out there that there is no hope of ever coming down.

    I think that her shrink should check her levels and change her medication because it's just not working.

  2. Wow! I can't contain my disappointment over the show becoming an Obama ad on the Pennsylvania primary eve. First Bill Maher and now the Daily Show loses its sense of humor to promote a candidate. What a turn off. Whatever became of being an equal opportunity offender. I never thought I'd say it but now it looks like only the Cobert Report is fair and balanced!

  3. I thought Barack did just fine, as usual! Very gracious, humble with a great sense of humour. That's why I like Barack, when he speaks it doesn't sound forced or fake (like Hillary) instead it is honest and coming from the heart (corny I know but it's true). That's the biggest difference I see between Hillary and Barack. One is putting on a front, the other is speaking as he feels.

    PS: Jon, that place you recommeded at the end sounds great! Potatoes inside the sandwiches? Yum!

  5. I thought it (and even worse, the "Edie Brickell" thing) made him look like a TV announcer who would repeat any empty words -- basically, reinforcing the worst stereotypes propagated by the Hillary supporters.

    Don't even get me started about Stewart's snide "How will he disappoint us? I hope it's a financial scandal!" Correct me if I'm wrong, but when he had Hillary on, he spent the entire time tongue-kissing her, with no snark. But he couldn't resist these digs.

    I've said it before and I'll say it again: Stewart supports Hillary. His staff obviously supports Obama; the "Moment of Zen" tape showed that tonight (and has shown it in the past). But Stewart himself seems to get credit for being more liberal than he really is.

    Stewart, you're on notice.

  6. I like what Barrack O'Bama talks about, however I wish Comedy Central (specifically The Daily Show and The Colbert Report) would give Ron Paul and us conservative Republicans some airtime. Imagine a 2008 presidential debate involving McCain, O'Bama, Ralph Nader AND Ron Paul!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! John Stewert could host such an event that would be REVOLUTIONARY, to say the least!! Who's with me??

    Defend the Bill of Rights and the first amendment!!!!

  8. i know this aint no msnbc board, but did anyone catch hillary on olberman? It was great he read her a quote where she praised mccain as a worthy leader a month before scolding obama for saying hed be better than bush. she also did her creepy laugh when asked hard hitting questions about her shady ties with corrupt officials. i didnt catch the whole thing cause i was toggling between jon and keith but it sure was nice to see an interviewer with her that too intimidated to bust her woman balls. people really need to wake up, she is not mentally sound, she needs to lose the fake smile, and talk for real, like my man obama's been doing.

  9. I read that the Clinton Campaign is in debt. On the reporting form under total assets it says: Forty Acres and a Mule.
