Comedy Central got more into the festive mood over the 2008 presidential election today by unveiling Indecision2008.com. The site “revels in the absurdity of campaign news on a daily basis.”

Comedy Central is using Indecision2008.com to aggregate related video content daily from shows such as The Daily Show With Jon Stewart, ‘The Colbert Report and Lil’ Bush. The site will also post up-to-the-minute coverage of election happenings via its own blogger who will hunt the Web for “the most absurd campaign tidbits.” This is joined by widgets which provide random campaign factoids, interactive polls and downloads such as IM icons and wallpapers.

Future plans call for an expanded offering of widgets, a public forum to discuss all things political, online fantasy gaming and user generated video contributions in the spirit of the election.

“The presidential election has long been a source of comedic inspiration for our shows and our network,” said Erik Flannigan, executive vice president, digital media, Comedy Central. “With Indecision2008.com, Comedy Central is augmenting the best of our on-air coverage with programming exclusively created for the Web audience which is cordially invited to participate and join in the fun.”
