America's Funniest Senator!
My vote is with Ben Nighthorse Campbell, but maybe that's just cuz he has a pony tail and a cool name and rides a chopper. Tom Daschle does have an amusing story about jerky.

Trachtenburg Family Slideshow Players
They steal slideshow reels from garage sales and write music to them. I saw these guys open for Guster in Portland, and the experience was amazingly dreadful.
