I must admit, i did find the Daily Show segment on this very interesting. The deep fried butter was ....well, it's hard to put into words... wow. I doubt even the Scots do that and they deep fry fucking chocolate bars.

It's a truly bizarre format for politicking. I love the way these oddities spring up within the political process. there's always one place that gets heralded as the predictor, and starts to take on almost mythic properties. And always some bizarre rituals form around certain places and activities. Awesome.
