Stewart, The Daily Show Unveil "The Dick Move of the Week"

On Tuesday night, The Daily Show unveiled a new segment, "The Dick Move of the Week" and its first winner: Barack Obama. As Jon Stewart said:

"As the race wears on, you're going to start to see the campaigns behaving a little bit more aggressively, trying to score points on the other guy. But there is a very fine line between an aggressive move and what Beltway insiders refer to as - a bit of a dick move. Which brings us to our new segment: 'Dick Move of the Week.'"

Winner of the first "award?" Barack Obama. Now, why did Obama win? A campaign office gave away Dave Matthews tickets. Why would that be a "Dick Move?" The timing.

Do you think it was:

a) A String Cheese Incident fans for McCain rally.
b) The middle of the night during a 3 AM phone call to Clinton supporters
c) During a Bill Clinton campaign speech on the exact same campus

You guessed it, c). On the other hand, while perhaps a "Dick Move," I think it was quite clever.

BTW, that's The Daily Show's new character, Dickie the Animated Penis above.
