Democrats rake in the cash after being on Colbert Report; Republicans? Zilch

By GottaLaff

I've always known comedy paid off (hence the name Gotta...). The Dems have caught on:

Democratic politicians enjoy a major spike in political contributions after appearing on Comedy Central’s “The Colbert Report,” according to a new study.

Political scientist James Fowler of the University of California, San Diego found that Democrats receive a 40 percent increase in contributions in the month after appearing on the fake-news show. But Republicans, Fowler concludes, “essentially gain nothing,” according to a release.

One: Republicans aren't funny (intentionally).

Two: Republicans have nothing in common with most of us.

And three: Nobody wants to give money to losers.
