Daily Show Full Episodes Political Humor Tea Party

GOP gubernatorial Rick Lazio is best known to New Yorkers as the guy who ran against Hillary Clinton for Senate in 2000. More precisely, as the guy who marched across the stage in a debate with Clinton.

Going through some old Lazio footage, I came across this early clip from The Daily Show with Jon Stewart, which had its own take on that famous debate.
