"RNC 2012: The Road to Jeb Bush 2016"

-- The title the "Daily Show" folks have given their coverage of the upcoming GOP convention in Tampa, Fla. The Comedy Central show hosted by Jon Stewart will film from Straz Center in Tampa next week, broadcasting Tuesday through Friday night. Correspondents Samantha Bee, Jason Jones, Al Madrigal, John Oliver, Jessica Williams and Tampa native Aasif Mandvi will all be on hand, with Mandvi being used as an expert on his hometown. For those traveling to the convention, tickets for the "Daily Show" are long gone, reports the Tampa Bay Times. Sister show, "The Colbert Report," is staying put in New York City.
