Jon Stewart looked at the problems facing the thousandth or so new candidate for the Republican nomination, Chris Christie: He’s not only is he completely unpopular back home in New Jersey, but “you’ve already finished second in the loud, Northeastern egomaniac primary” — to Donald Trump.
Jon also interviewed Sen.

Jimmy Kimmel gave a full celebrity makeover to the newly-crowned “World’s Ugliest Dog” — making her now “the World’s Most Beautiful Dog.”
