Colbert SuperPAC Packs A Punch

Yesterday Stephen Colbert's SuperPAC made waves across the national news networks as it began to make itself known in the political arena. High-budget commercials spots appeared on two of the three Des Moines, Iowa news stations in prime time. The activity has been covered on several of the national cable news networks.

What began as a protest or answer to the unlimited use of money and power in the election process by superpacs, and their ability to influence public opinion and election outcome, has become more than a joke. Colbert's SuperPAC is 165,000 strong and counting, and has yet to define what it stands for. "making a better tomorrow, tomorrow" is the byline, and it appears that it is starting yesterday.

With the airing of the commercials, ostensibly in support of Rick Parry(with an A), the Colbert SuperPAC has come out swinging. We'll be watching and waiting to see how these developments affect the narrative of politics in America. We'll be waiting to find out what we stand for. We'll be wondering if anyone punches back.
