Jon Stewart's style of comedy is very intellectually-based. It's "Smart Comedy" so it's gonna make you think before you laugh. Stephen Colbert is a punchline comedian, so he can make more people laugh...without thinking.

Stewart isn't actually smart enough about politics for his "intellectually-based" humor to work though, IMHO. It's "smart" humor for college-age kids whose only exposure to the news is via Stewart's show.
