Stephen Colbert endorses Shashi Tharoor

Browsing through the videos from The Colbert Report using my Colbert Report Gadget is an integral part of my morning rituals. Today there was a really surprising video among the day's videos. A video about the Indian elections (which btw, started yesterday). He described India as an emerging world power with a thriving economy, nuclear weapons and the world's biggest stockpile of Kumars. Shahi Tharoor's son Kanishk Tharoor appeared on the show. And Stephen officilly endorsed Shahi Tharoor, although it was a bit too late, 'coz voting in Kerala was over by that time (not that people in Kerala watch The colbet Show anyway).
