Ben Affleck isn't the only puppet wandering the DNC. Variety reports that genius comedy writer Robert Smigel is running around with his hand jammed up the rubber ass of Triumph the Insult Comic Dog, harassing the delegates for a documentary of his own and snagging interviews with the likes of Michael Moore and Arianna Huffington. Someone should probably check Affleck's anal column for a controlling forearm; he's been so maniacally on-message that we wouldn't be surprised if someone from the Kerry team is working him like a cheap sock.
