That’s what I say.
I thought there were rumors that Obama would appear on SNL this weekend?
So did I
M-C can be pretty funny with a deadpan delivery if the material is decent.
I thought Obama was suppose to come on there?
He won’t go on Rush Limbaugh, but will go on SNL...great priorities...
Oh no! Not another aspect of this race I have to worry about!
You took the words right out of my mouth.
As much as I dislike McCain personally, His SNL appearances are the best of all politicians.
Big mistake
Not watching. Hope McCain finds something more urgent to do.
I thought OIslama was gonna be on this Saturday.
I bet that changes either tomorrow (Friday) or Monday for sure.
Also, SNL - free air time. Couple that with the MNF appearence coming, good use of free air time.
Gee, the Messiah’s infomercial went over well, didn’t it?
How many of the Messiah's Sham WOW! towels did he sell?
not a good move. momentum’s going his way, polls are moving his way. why go on SNL and let them tkae potshots at him and make a fool of him? Time would be better spent campaigning somewhere in PA. I have been convinced all along that he has no interest in winning.
Actually, McCain does have his priorities straight here. 75% of Rush's listeners area already voting for McCain, the other 25% are lefties listening for Rush to trip up. OTOH I'd bet at least 50% of SNL voters do not plan on voting for McCain. Maybe are "undecideds" that vote on personality as much as policy. McCain can be hysterical (see the Al Smith Dinner performance) which makes him more likable. More likable = more electable.
Well, how are they doing since Palin went on? Obama’s surrogates had to spend a week after her ratings triumph trying-and failing-to knock her back down with a menagerie of BS. This is a great move.
Exactly, McCain needs any free air time he can get, especially after the Obama propaganda infomercial.
I thought Obama was doing SNL this weekend. I would love to see that though.
