It started when, during the opening of last night’s Late Show, Colbert was interrupted by the crying of a little girl in the audience, dressed as a circa-turn-of-the-century street urchin, who, when discovered, stood up to sing of her plight: she wasn’t sure she could vote for either candidate (willing suspension of disbelief y’all).
