Stewart Pokes Fun at Media Speculating Future Election Activity Based on Present Results

‘Set the speculometer to three years hence!’

STEWART: "So Christie and McAuliffe, obviously these elections will have ramifications in the administration of policies in these two great states, ramifications that will impact real people's lives. For more on the substantive policy effect of these elections, we go to our news analysis -- I'm just [bleep] with you. Set the speculometer to three years hence!"

BLITZER: "What does the New Jersey race say about Chris Christie's prospects in 2016?"
CNN: "McAuliffe came out on top, what this all means for 2016 ... What the results say about the tea party ... If Virginia is in play, Ohio is in play ... "
SCHULTZ: "This was a great night for the Democrats."
MSNBC: "This was not a great night for the tea party."
BLITZER: "Should conservative Republican candidates be nervous."
CNN: "If Virginia is in play, then Florida is in play."
MORGAN: "What does it mean for Ted Cruz's campaign?"
CNN: "What could it mean for the possible Hillary Clinton run? ... Cuccinelli's defeat and what that means for Rubio."
KING: "2013 turns into 2014, then we begin to think of 2016."
