On Wednesday's "Daily Show," the day after Barack Obama declared victory in the Democratic primary, Jon Stewart laid into all the pundits who declared her nomination inevitable, ending with a 2006 clip of Joe Scarborough warning Barack Obama that it was going to be ugly.

Very Funny but incredibly accurate. What is amazing is that it is a summary of the truth!
Thanks Jon - Will be watching daily.
watched this last night and LOVED all the old footage he dug up - Jon should mail a copy to Terry McAuliffe and Bill Clinton.
Joe Scarborough is so sure of himself it is sickening. He talks as he knows it all and goes on and on repeting the same stuff over and over as if he knew that people dont really listen to his non-sense. Mika ans Rachel should host that show. And Tucker and Joe should be jobless for all I care.
the essence of conservative rhetoric is repetition of nonesensical or inaccurate memes.
I was actually almost enjoying bits of Morning Shmoe....until Shmoe came back...back to CNN I guess
Mika is nothing more than a punching bag scared to lose her job and to say anything that might upset Joe or the viewers. Every comment is followed by a "that being said" or "on the other hand." Just read the news Mika and stop acting like you have a clue.
Rachel is one of the smartest people on TV.
"Dewey Beats Turman" Nothing is a sure thing in Politics.
Do you like apples, naysayers? Obama wins the Democratic nomination! How about them apples?!
Daily Show rocks it again...I LMMFAO.
Sometimes it takes someone like Jon Stewart to shine a light on things that might normally be overlooked. The parsing of Hillary's speech for instance. I haven't went back and counted them, BUT (as it was shown in the clip), Hillary's speech was all I. It was all I will, I want, I am, I want, I want and me, me, me, me.
Contrast that with Obama's speech that was We, We, We, We and Us, Us, Us, Us.
It actually popped into my head when she said, "People ask what does Hillary want" that she was going to break into the song from Willie Wonka (the original) "I want it all and I want it now" by the spoiled little girl Verucca Salt.
Scarborough was right about one thing though. It did get ugly. But he got the big thing wrong.
funwithwarcrimes.com says -- Jon Stewart is god -- I just want everyone to remember that.
LOL...Grrrrrrrrrrrrreat stuff!!!! Don't worry, Fox news is a 'ho -- they'll go wherever they think the money will be.
It's so great how the Daily Show can make the truth in politics funny as hell.
Running for coin....He he heee
I would proudly display an original framed Obama Silver Dollar in a my home.
ME ME Me Me MEeee,
That's the sound of the fat lady warming up to sing...
My god, I was wondering why Hillary said "me" so many times in her speech... so that was it!
(though to be fair, she's in awesome shape for her age and the wear and tear of a campaign)
It is not over til the rear seam of the pantsuit is blown out. Maybe this Saturday.
Secondary message: no free passes for McCain. Look at the Forrestal Fire, Keating 5, Endorsing torture in the name of the United States, and innumerable flip flops. Go Johnny Go.
You keep trying to pin the Forrestal fire on him, which is a deranged conspiracy theory. This shows you have no credibility.
This is something the regular news outlets should do themselves from time to time.
"That was then, this is now." If a comedy show is that good at mining video archives, surely the news outlets themselves could do this. In fact right after the McClellan book came out, instead of patting themselves on the back for their coverage of the lead up to the war, perhaps they could have gone back and shown what spineless organizations they really are.
Hilarious!
Hillarious?!
Hate that Joe Scarecrow.....full of bullshit......
Thanks Jon...as usual ....you were great ...and right to the point,
Funny as Hell!!.....LMAO!!
