Stephen Colbert Introduces The 'Hilly Fanatic' During DNC Show

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- Stephen Colbert has been hosting special editions of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert throughout the Republican and Democratic National Conventions.

You have to wonder if the Phillie Phanatic and the Hilly Fanatic are related.
