WWJSD? That's the question that anyone who was inspired or enlightened by Jon Stewart's nightly hammering of the establishment keeps asking this election cycle.(Stewart is off saving cows, bless him.) Meanwhile, Trevor Noah is off to a rocky start at the helm of The Daily Show. He's trying his damnedest, though, and you have to give him credit where it's due. He's had some truly Stewartesque moments, like his defense of President Obama's tears. Last night's guest on the program was DNC Chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz, a person who, as Esquire's Charlie Pierce puts it, is "shockingly still employed" after repeatedly proving her ineptitude.

So, what would Stewart have done? He would have asked the very question that Noah asked last night: "A lot of people feel, and I'm going to paraphrase, that Bernie is being cock-blocked by the DNC. Is there any merit to this?"

And here's Wasserman Schultz's non-answer:

"As powerful as that makes me feel, I'm not doing a very good job of rigging the outcome or blocking anyone from being able to get their message out. The reality is I have a job as a national party chair that one I have a thick skin and requires me to absorb the body blows so our candidates can stay above the fray, and if I have to take a few punches so they can get their message out then so be it."

Stewart would have kept pushing. He wouldn't have let that fly. But Noah moved on and asked a pretty legitimate question about how super delegates are in any way representative of a democratic form of government: "Doesn't the idea of a super delegate go against the very fact that people should be voting for people who represent them at the convention?"

Please, do explain, Chairperson:

"We've had super delegates since I was in high school ... We have party activists, party officials, and other leaders, who have never determined the outcome of our nominee. It's voters that can and should determine that outcome. If you look on the other side I bet my counterpart is wishing for some kind of magic pill ... that he could use to make his problems go away."

Yeah, the Republicans are fucked, but the Republicans being fucked doesn't exactly explain the presence of super delegates at the DNC.

But, whatever, cheers to Noah for stepping up.
