The final debate's in the books, crazy ads are on the air, and early voting is on Obama's mind.

CAMPAIGN UPDATE knows that election news and weird jokes go together like a popped-collar meathead and a vacant-eyed blonde. Created by Mark Ganek and Brett Erlich, Campaign Update strives to be the dumbest smart show on television.

    • Oh, why dost thou mock the glory of the pumpkin farmers?
      Have thee not any pity for their plight?

      "A giant pumpkin can put on around 40 pounds a day. If there is too much rain, some pumpkins overindulge and begin packing on closer to 50 pounds a day. As the pumpkins expand, pressure builds on the weaker parts of the rind and suddenly they blow."

      "It's not just giant pumpkins that have had a bad year. Smaller field pumpkins (the jack-o'-lantern kind) are suffering, too.

      More than 1,000 New England farms grow pumpkins, and some of them have done just fine (which is to say that despite the rainy weather, there should not be any shortages this fall). But many farmers, especially those with low-lying land, have taken a real hit. "

    • haha, always brilliant. any chance we can get an update about third party cadidates? Bob Barr, Ralph Nader, Jackson Kirk Grimes (self-proclaimed fascist), Frank Moore!!! I can only imagine what Brett would come up with for Jackson Kirk Grimes. I mean, the "Grimes Easy Joke Counter" would be off the charts. He champions abolishing Christianity and replacing it with Roman Paganism fused with Italian-style fascism. How about abolishing paper money? Think about it, if paper money doesn't exist, then Americans won't have to worry about all these crazy tax plans and inflation. We'll just go back to bartering with horse chestnuts and cowry shells.
