The Daily Show with Jon Stewart: Indecision 2004: Disc 2: Republican National Convention: Target New York

The second in this four disc set is fairly similar to the first disc in that the first two episodes are no better than your average Daily Show you could find nightly on Comedy Central (if you had cable or satellite). Episode two does contain a terrific Bush campaign film. Things get much better with the last two episodes. Episode three kicks things into high gear with the analysis of Senator Zell Miller's keynote address. It also has a great interview with Senator John McCain (how he lost the Republican nomination to Bush in 2000 is one of recent politics great mysteries). Episode four deals mainly with Bush himself as he accepts the Republican nomination for presidency. I wish we had a president that would make Jon Stewart's work harder, as Bush can make himself quite an easy target. It's not so good for politics, but it makes for great comedy. Lewis Black's Back in Black provides a great finish for Disc two.

My grade: B+
