Did anyone else watch tonight's Simpsons episode?

It was an episode where Lisa befriended a girl named Isabel, and she found out that Isabel was a conservative, and then they both ran for 2nd grade rep. I'm not going to spoil the ending for those who didn't watch, but it was interesting. The Simpsons definitely seems to have gotten more political than it used to be, at least in my opinion.
