Mwuahaha. Steve is going Democrat.

"Funnyman Stephen Colbert's presidential campaign is apparently no joke.

The host of Comedy Central's "The Colbert Report" will file papers late Wednesday or early Thursday to put his name on South Carolina's Democratic primary ballot, a source familiar with the comedian's strategy said.

Stephen Colbert, a South Carolina native, made two "campaign" stops in the Palmetto State last weekend.

The South Carolina native will not file papers as a Republican because the $35,000 required to get on the GOP ballot is apparently too high a threshold.

"They priced us out of range," the source told CNN."

You can still only vote in one party's primary, however, right? So if people vote for Colbert (D) they wouldn't be able to vote for Paul (R) would they?
