Colbert's Holbrooke-approved take on Afghanistan

Ambassador Holbrooke specifically referenced last night's episode of  The Colbert Report in his introduction to this morning's event, saying this segment on the Afghan elections "got it pretty accurately." 

Draw your own conclusions about what that means for Afghan democracy but it is pretty funny. And Ashraf Ghani's new political advisor advisor James Carville does indeed look like "something you'd see in an opium nightmare."
