The Colbert Report vs. American Idol

Nation! It’s Stephen Colbert vs. Simon, Paula, and Randy, and you decide the winner! And if those odds don’t seem fair, we’ll throw in Clay Aiken just to even things up. Yes, the Idol team is hopeless outmatched in a bout against a guy who was dubbed worthy to carry the shield of Captain America, but I’m sure they’ll put up a good fight. Vote now!

My wife, Beth the bassist, voted, but I cannot. Two separate computers. So sad.

Sorry about that. Should be fixed now. It was restricting votes to one per IP address. I think I’ve turned that off. Let me know if it works now.

@Jeremy - I eat his ice cream, too. My wife and I are addicted to it. Best ice cream I’ve ever had that wasn’t fresh from a stand.

@Beth - Well, it’s only a question because he had to trounce on somebody in the first round. And it might as well be them. Right? :-)
