Gov. Martin O'Malley has thrown some weight behind electing Elizabeth Colbert Busch, sister of comedian and political satirist Stephen Colbert, to Congress. O'Malley is the only governor on a list of more than 30 high-profile Democrats hosting a Colbert Busch fundraiser in Washington, D.C. later this month, according to an invitation to the event obtained by The Baltimore Sun.  Colbert will be a featured guest at the "Colberts United!" benefit, said the invitation, which makes generous use of exclamation points.  O'Malley stumped a little for Colbert Busch last month when he gave the keynote address at a conference of South Carolina Democrats.
