Stephen Colbert loses bid for naming rights to South Carolina primary. Seriously.
He lost the naming rights but with a huge donation, might still be able to post a question on the GOP primary ballot in South Carolina. And I'm dying to see how the Republican people of South Carolina vote on it...
It'll be question #4 in this picture:
State party officials ultimately rejected the idea of renaming its 2012 contest, 'The Colbert Nation Super PAC Presidential Primary," but the South Carolina GOP still pursued adding a question proposed by Colbert to the state's 2012 primary ballot in exchange for a "sizable donation" from the Comedy Central host. The proposed question asked whether voters in the state believe "corporations are people" or "only people are people."
