The New York Mets fell short of the World Series by a hair last week, bowing out of the National League playoffs after a nail-biting defeat at the hands of St. Louis. One of their supporters, Daily Show host Jon Stewart, was on hand to give them everything he could. But alas, it was not enough. Much like T.H. Gossip's efforts to get Nicole Richie into rehab, sometimes no matter how hard you try, it's out of your control.

Stewart himself recently bowed out of the 2008 Presidential race, much to the dismay of millions who want him on a ticket with Stephen Colbert. Tell me those two guys couldn't beat some of the chumps thinking of running! Sigh.

On the bright side, there's no way Ashlee Simpson can run. You have to be 35, according to the U.S. Constitution, and she's not even close (nor would even the dumbest of Americans vote for her... at least we hope that's the case)!
