Conan O'Brien's Huckabee Fight with Colbert, Stewart

The presidential race has been a goldmine for talk shows (well, when the Writers' Guild strike isn't happening) and nowhere is that more apparent than on The Daily Show and The Colbert Report. On last night's Colbert Report, on a riff about John McCain's Super Tuesday chances and taking credit for Mike Huckabee'e campaign, Stephen Colbert was joined by Jon Stewart, his Comedy Central crony, and then Conan O'Brien!

This comes after O'Brien discussed who gave Huckabee more of a bump (videos 1, 2) last month and the feud continued last night on O'Brien's show.

For the love of god, end the writer's strike soon.

Conan and Colbert were also on the Daily Show, half an hour earlier.

it would have been funnier if they used real violence.

In a spectacular showing of camaraderie, each of these hosts went on the others program to, well, have fun. It was fun to watch, despite the horrificly bad acting, and one could only wish to have been in each of the audiences. Nice to see everyone getting along while the writers are off...
