What I find amazing is that the Obamabots are the first ones to scream racism at the first hint of anti-Obama comments and yet they find it so easy to ridicule someone for their age. Sorry Obamabots, you're just a bunch of hypocrits.

Wow, so much derision and hate for McCain. I can almost taste the bile in the mouth of the Obamabots.

Antonio, actually, I do find it quite funny. He was joking I'm sure. If Iran is ever truly bombed it would be a tragedy for their people. However, both Clinton and McCain have the right idea. Keep em guessing and on their toes when they're as insane as their president.

Dear Americans:

I am sure you will agree with me this has been an exciting primary election. However, we must never forget the idea of our forefathers “that we the people” and the legacy of a dream “that I have a dream” should not be forgotten. Our differences may be great but let us not forget the American spirit and let us unite. Whoever our nominee, let it be heard and said that we as American’s will support our country and land and that we are one.

@J.Onofre -CA – "McCain will not get my vote. Bush can tell a better joke than McCain and I hate Bush."

Wow! The ability to deliver a joke is the basis for who gets your vote? How sad.

Waah!! No Way! Oh heck no! I will vote for Kim Jong Il before I will vote for Obama! Really, I will vote for satan rather than Obama. I mean it! I will vote for Amijindad before Obama. So either nominate Hillary or I will take my toys and vote and go home! And I will hold my nose until I turn Blue1

Abe Lincoln had this to say, probably about McCain: "Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a man's character, give him power."
— Abraham Lincoln

Obama 08 love it or not that is the way it is!

Sharon from Minnesotta

do you find bombing Iran funny?

Go McCain. Democrats for McCain

Patricia, I don't recall saying who I support. But okay.

My point was that the Obama supporters are insulting to anyone who doesn't support Obama and as a result, McCain will end up clinching the presidency.

Read into that whatever you wish.

Obama Supporter May 13th, 2008 5:08 pm ET

Hey, Barack! Glad to see you're instantly conceding to Clinton on WVA. Those dumbies don't deserve the attention of a guy of your caliber. I think conceding early on shows how expendable they are for you – who needs bible toting, gun toting miners. Hillary is slumming, right? You go, Barack!

OBAMA FOR PRESIDENT NOW!!!
***********************************

HEY OBAMA SUPPORTERS "HOW TO WIN FRIENDS AND INFLUENCE PEOPLE" A MUST PREREQUISITE READ FOR ALL COLLEGE ENTRY LEVEL STUDENTS,

I GUESS YOUR NOT ONE OF THE EGG HEADS SO YOU MUST BE ONE OF THE AFRICAN AMERICAN THAT SUPPORT OBAMA…

COMMENTS LIKE YOURS ONLY REMINDS THE REST OF AMERICA WHAT WE HAVE HIDDEN IN THE GUTTERS….
BARACK GUTTER BLOGGERS, YOU JUST CAN'T BEAT THEM FOR THEIR ORIGINAL VERBAL TRASH!!!

GOD BLESS AMERICA AND OUR NEXT PRESIDENT H.R. CLINTON

I can't think of anything funnier than one of the founding members of the Keating 5 scandal to tell jokes on SNL. Didn't know Lorne was a member of the GOP. Maybe McCain will do a stand up routine where he jokes about why he's continued to vote AGAINST veterans benefits. Oh, and the hilarious one where he thinks it'd be a good thing for us to be at war for 100 years. Whew… laughing so hard my stomach aches. Oh, and then he could tell us how he facilitated questionable land deals with billionaire Mr. Diamond in his home state of Arizona, where John pushed the pentagon for a quick sale of military land. John McCain… what a joke.

Did Leiberman whisper in his ear what Saturday Night Live is?

tejano- Hillary is one of us?
Are you a multi-millionaire also?
Wow must be great to be you! She is not one of "us" as in working slugs who have no insurance, our pay is stagnant "if" we have a job. My daughter will be in to debt up to her ears to get a biology degree. She won't be able to take a year off work, if I run for dog catcher, because she will be paying for her student loans for 20 years! If your child can get a free college education, and take a year off for "mommy", then you vote for her, b/c she is one of you!
She is nothing like me, she is not like "one of us" where I come from. She has had everything handed to her, and has had to work for nothing! She has lead a privileged life,,,and if you believe any thing different,,,then you believe she really was under sniper fire too!
When I wear $1000. pant suits, don't have to pump gas, let alone buy it, and have my coffee poured into china for me, not pour it myself in a paper cup in a convenience store…THEN I will vote for her! When someone pays for my daughter's education so she doesn't have to work TWO part time jobs at the same time AND try to keep her GPA up, THEN I VOTE FOR HILLARY B/C I will be like HER!
Till that time…I'm voting for the guy that pulled himself up by his boot straps, had to live with racism, and discrimination, PAID his own way to college with loans, AND came out of it all with Ethics, standards and MORALS, to tell the truth…even when the truth is painful!
She does NOT represent ME, and I will NEVER vote for her, not even as the white middle aged woman…I am!

He needs to do something to be perceived as being relevant. So far, he's so 1980s.

This guy is definitely out of touch. Today he didn't bother to show up at the Senate to vote on an important gas measure that could save Americans a couple of pennys to twenty five cents for a gallon of gas; however he can plan a weekend on the set of Saturday Night Live. Unbelievable!!!. Bush's protege at his finest. Wake up folks!!!

SNL should do a sketch about how CNN continues to discriminate against Hillary Clinton supporters by CENSORING and removing our posts. I pay for my cable TV and for having CNN to watch. I think I should be able to express my opinion here on the Ticker where my posts are frequently removed without any just cause.

Here is some of what I said in a prior post. If there is a problem with it, one would think they would be notified. CNN has posters' e-mail addresses:

The Superdelegates will have to really take pause if Hillary Clinton wins by a fairly wide margin of 20 points or better in West Virginia because West Virginia will be a critical swing state in the November election. Hillary Clinton is no slouch here. She has carried the entire Democratic base in this election and more Democrats have voted for her than Barack Obama in this country. The DNC failed to represent and count the votes of Democratic voters in Florida whose Republican leaders moved the primary up there and Barack Obama reportedly did not approve a re-vote in Florida and Michigan. But, the voters of these two states WILL have their voices heard in the General Election and they are NOT HAPPY with Barack Obama, the DNC, the Rules Committee, or Howard Dean.

There are also a great number of women in this country – baby boomers of an age now who were a part of the Women's Movement of the 1960s who WANT to see Hillary Clinton in the White House. Hillary Clinton is experienced and competent – and she is woman which is a bonus.

The Democratic Party has its work cut out for them – a monster they created for themselves. At this point, I will not be surprised if we end up with McCain in the White House this time around. I think the DNC has worked very well in doing things that have nearly destroyed the Democratic Party in this election. They have a LOT of cleaning up to do.

How is it that the Superdelegates, Guam, and other entities are deciding this race when there are 2.3 million citizen-voters in Florida and Michigan who are being denied their votes and their voices in this election. The DNC made the rules in such a way that neither candidate can reach the finish line without the Superdelegates. I have wondered if this was intentional because it does not make much sense.

I think the Democratic Party could be heading for a split because I do not see we, the Hillary Clinton supporters, turning away from Hillary Clinton. In fact, there is a movement for Hillary Democrats to write-in Hillary Clinton on the General Election ballot if her name is not already on it when we vote. I think there are also Hillary Clinton Democrats who will be voting Republican because many of us believe Hillary Clinton got a raw deal in this election.

Why not? He is just another joke.

You know what I like best about Barack? I feel like I have permission to dismiss poor people – like the ones in West Virginia. Barack won't give them the time of day. He' conceding early to send them that message. YOU DON'T COUNT! RICH PEOPLE WITH PhDs DO COUNT!! He's not even going to watch tv to see what happens. I get the message. DO YOU??!!??

Why hasn't Sen. McCain denounced the pastor that he sought after to support him that said Hurricane Katrina was God's way of cleaning up New Orleans of sin?

it's hilarious watching your grandpa try to seem hip…..

Why in heavens name Bill Schneider thinks West Virginia should change ANYTHING about this race is beyond me. Obviously, the man is totally Hillary biased. He will write or say anything to try and sway people's subconscious thinking, but I think people, other than those in West Virginia and Kentucky, are smarter than that.

Obama is a CHAMELEON!

Why the democrat superdelagates are abandon the stronger candidate/Clinton/, the Gullpe Poll says?
They want to smash Clintons?
They are affrat from black's reactions?

Do not blame Hillary being divisive! SHe just deserves Presidency better that Obama!

He should've waited !
He kills one American dream; Female for President!

God sees everything!

MICKEY MOUSE CAN BEAT MCCAIN!!,DOMBO, GOOFY, AND PLUTO TOO.( YES OBAMA CAN )

The best SNL inpersonation is Amy Poehler's version of Hillary Clinton. She is PERFECT. SNL was down right mean to Hillary this past Saturday. Wonder when the Barack paridys will start full time. He is a big player in the new afterall.

We could have predicted 60 years ago how West Virgina would come out today! THE SOUTH WILL RISE AGAIN!

It is clear to me what the difference is, the states West of the Mississippi or more progressive and educated. A lot states on the on the east side of the Mississippi still live in the past never fully understanding those who live around them. They stay locked up in there homes always afraid of those who are different.

Obama will win every state West of the Mississippi with the exception of Arizona McCain’s home state. Obama is well loved out here in the West we always look into a mans heart and see his soul . That is how the West was won we always look ahead. We do not have all the problems you have on the east side of the Mississippi, we always look forward instead of backwards.

The hate and racism you have handed down from generation to generation in the East does play well out hear in Gods Country. We are not perfect out hear butt we will give a man a honest hearing.

This should be good. I wonder if they are going to have his homophobic, anti american John Hageee on the show to accompany him. Such a double standard!! John Hagee can say the same things as Rev. Wright, but no one says anything, McCain doesn't have to denounce him and he is still plays an important role in McCains campaign team as does Bush….I hope this gets added seeing as how i was sencored yesterday…ugghh! media…they only show what they want to prove thier own point/agenda. Has anyone noticed that they haven't done the voter tally at all today like they normaly do? why?

No way! This country needs someone that can work with Obama, not be opionated & domineering.

mccain is just too old to be president. 72 is past life expectantcy, we need to change the law to make sure the president lives to see what the results of his actions were.

Why are HIllary supporters turning to McCain? Because their loyalty to their country is more important to them than party affiliation. McCain is the better candidate to lead this country, and is far more likely to unite this country across party lines.

Furthermore, the intergrity of a candidate, or lack thereof, is often shown by those who follow and support him. One need only look to the idiotic dialogue and lame jokes that the Obama supporters spew out on these blogs regularly to see how he has scraped the bottom of the barrel for his support, as opposed to the far more articulate McCain and Clinton supporters.

Obama = Carter 2nd Term (higher unemployment, inflation, and interest rates, weakness abroad)

Everyone but the new party members know that Obama is the weaker candidate. Since McCain had the nomination wrapped up,
Repubicans and Independents voted to make him look good, but all the time they wanted him to be the candidate of the leftist. Hillary would have been harder to beat.

We know McCain is not George W. Bush and no matter how you spin it, the American electorate won't buy it. McCain is a Maverick within his own party. He is the best choice for Freedom loving Americans.

Hey, Barack! Glad to see you're instantly conceding to Clinton on WVA. Those dumbies don't deserve the attention of a guy of your caliber. I think conceding early on shows how expendable they are for you – who needs bible toting, gun toting miners. Hillary is slumming, right? You go, Barack!

OBAMA FOR PRESIDENT NOW!!!

This is a fabrication of the media. A ticket Obama/Hillary will not happen. This country does not need Hillary, who pretends to have all the solutions of the world's problems. Scary!!!. Her stupid gasoline tax cut is revealing. Moreover, Hillary said that she will not listen to the economists. Senator Obama has a plethory of candidates to choose from. There is not a shortage of compent VP in this country.

Someone here, named, Fred, said that he is a Hillary' supporter and will not vote Senator Obama.
In November, the choice will be between old and young, between past verus future, between lobbyists and the American people, between corruption/scandals and ehtics, between moving forward and going backward, between war and diplomacy. Fred, make your choice. With McCain, you will elect a corrupt and dishonest man, Have you ever heard Keating??? If not, take some history courses.

I'd like to take this time to thank the following:

Barack Obama–for showing us what true courage is about.
Michelle Obama–for not bending under the heat of the national spotlight. I knew exactly what you meant, and I KNOW you love this country and have been proud of this country for a long time, as we all do.
Ted Kennedy–for supporting Barack very early in the campaign.
Caroline Kennedy–for leaving your home (kids, etc.) to support Barack. And for that opt ed in the Times, wow.
John Kerry–for his kind words about Barack
Oprah Winfrey–for breaking your rule not to support candidates to support Barack.
Hillary Clinton–for showing your true colors.
Gov. Richardson–for supporting Barack.
College Students–for proving the older generation wrong by saying you don't care about your world.
Marie Swartzenegger (?) for supporting Barack even though your husband did not.
George W Bush–for being the worst president in modern history and in so doing opening the door for Barack and Hillary to run.
John McCain–for your service to America, but I will still vote for Barack.
Iowa–for starting the most exciting presidential campaign I've ever seen.
Indiana Barack supporters–for your support for Barack. Even though Hillary won you made your point, loud and clear.
America–for being brave enough to ignore the rambling of Rev. Wright.
America–for knowing that true patriotism isn't wrapped up in a medal pin made in China.
Barack's Mom–for raising a decent, nice guy.
Americans–every American who supported Barack who wasn't expected to support Barack, such as whites, elderly people, Catholics, Latinos, Asians—–thank you.
Obama Girl–for making me laugh my head off, she's too funny.
Soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan, for your bravery in fighting a war that should never have been waged. Hold on, we'll bring you home soon.
Obama Superdelegates–for having the courage to come forward, no matte when.

I LOVE THIS COUNTRY !!! WHOOO HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

IF HILLARYS PEOPLE WANT TO VOTE FOR McCAIN THAT IS THEIR RIGHT!!!!!

THAT JUST SHOWS YOU HOW DISENFRANCHISED WE FEEL!

THE MEDIA HAS HANDED THIS ELECTION OVER TO OBAMA!!!!

HE HAS NO EXPERIENCE AND NO ACCOMPLISHMENTS!

NOT TO MENTION ALL HIS DIRT WHICH I WILL NOT LIST HERE I DON'T HAVE THE TIME!!!!!!

I AS A HILLARY SUPPORTER WILL NOT VOTE FOR McCAIN OR OBAMA!
THEY ARE THE SAME EXCEPT McCAIN IS A LOT SMARTER AND A WAR HERO!!!!!!!

IF HILLARY GETS SCREWED OUT OF THIS THING THEN I WILL WRITE HER NAME IN ON THE BALLOT!

HILLARY IS WHAT THIS COUNTRY NEEDS THIS IS WHY OBAMA CANNOT WIN THE STATES THAT SHE DOES!!!!!!!

GO HILLARY!!!!!!!!

So much hate and not enough time. The smart Obama supporters can't even spell, construct a sentence or make coherent comments.
They resort to name calling and finger pointing.
Hillary didn't ruin your guys chance of winning. Obama chose the company he keeps and now has to face the consequences.
We don't like him because of his race, we don't like him because of his ideas and lack of substance.
That is why Hillary is the only one that can beat McCain. She is one of us and will protect American interests in the international community.

Belle ~ you are not a Clinton supporter. It is evident from all your posts that you are a republican and you only post on these tickers to create animosity between the the supporters of the two democrats. You are showing your true colors constantly and I have to admit that I find them offensive. You should apologize to all the true Clinton supporters, as you are giving them a bad name.

White, catholic, and senior lady for Obama!!!!

HILLARY CLINTON IS ALREADY THE TRUE DEMOCRATIC NOMINEE!
As much as 30% of Obama's primary, and caucus votes are Republicans trying to choose the weakest democratic candidate for McCain to run against. These Republicans have been gaming the caucuses where it is easier to vote cheat. This is why Obama has not been able to win the BIG! states primaries. Even with Republican vote cheating help.
Hillary Clinton has been out manned, out gunned, and out spent 2 and 3 to 1. Yet Obama has only been able to manage a very tenuous, and questionable tie with Hillary Clinton.
If Obama is the democratic nominee for the national election in November he will be slaughtered. Because the Republican vote cheating help will suddenly evaporate. All of this vote fraud and republican manipulation has made Obama falsely look like a much stronger candidate than he really is. The democratic party needs to fix this outrage. I suggest a Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama ticket. Everyone needs to throw all your support to Hillary Clinton NOW! So you can end this outrage against US the voter, and against democracy.**

Someone asked, "How can Hillary beat McCain if she can't beat Obama?" Because the Democratic primary is a race to the left whereas the General is a race for the center, where Hillary is stronger. Most Americans see themselves as moderates or centrists. MoveOn endorsements get you the Dem nod, but make you a big loser in the General.

Wow after reading some of these comments, you guys are harsh. I'm not a McSame supporter but I'll tune in to at least get a laugh at the old-timer. LOL!

Is the country still racist? Simply read the comments my friends.
Shame on you all. Your grandparents were simply ignorant racists.
Your generation is much worse. Youre a much evil form of racists. One who knows better but still does wrong has a special place prepared for them.

Dems:

Pay no attention to the group that is posing as Hillary supporters trying to rally support for McCain or Hillary as an independent candidate. They are just Operation Chaosers trying to stir things up.

Vote Democrat in '08!

McCain is appearing on SNL to poke fun at himself, not to entertain those in this country who are near sited and narrow minded.

SO WHAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am simply disgusted by the comments of Obama supporters bashing Hillary. I am actually offended by Hillary supporters who would rather vote republican to see Obama go away. As a lifelong democrat, I have never seen this party so divided. I hope all of you will grow a brain, and work for our common goal – elect a democratic president to the white house. This is not about Obama or Hillary. This is about our country, and it's time, you hateful and ignorant commenters come together and support the democratic party, instead of your chosen candidate. Get over it.

Obama and Hillary are both uniquely qualified candidates and both have ran historic campaigns. Now Obama has the lead, and he is probably going to be the nominee. Stop your "Clinton Worshipping" and vote for the party.

As for Obama supporters, stop being nasty to Hillary and her supporters. She is one of the brightest people in the Senate and a lifelong public servant. Show her the respect and your candidate just might get some respect from Hillary supporters too.

The ironic appropriateness of this cannot be understated.

Why not a tax price Freeze. freeze the price of gas at a set amount.

Chantell ~ you are the weakest link, not Senator Obama. You need to grow up and do some homework.

People who post that they are Hillary supporters and will vote for McSame in November if she is not the nominee……….

They are REPUBLICANS posing as Democrats under Operation Chaos. Look it up.

Hillary supporters are smart enough to even consider voting for McCrazy, because they know that Hillary and Obama support the same policies.

Democrats United!

Thank you BIFF for proving my point!

Many of Hillary’s supporters have proudly proclaimed that they would vote for John McCain when Obama wins the nomination.

I wonder if they would feel so high and mighty if they ran the risk of driving over a road-side bomb on the way to their botox appointment in their soccermom mobile – or in their confederate flag bearin' pickup truck on the way to the lodge.

I second that motion, White Independent.

Thanks for sharing Obama's words. I just hope other people can stop fighting and actually listen.

Do you think McCain Is A Joke?

Let your voice be heard

2008 Presidential Election Weekly Poll

The Only poll that matters.

Run By a Kid.

Isn't this too late for a man of his age. He will not be able to hit the four pm buffets if he does this.

Politics aside, some of you folks need to watch rerun of Mccain on the SNL from a few years back. He was pretty darn funny. See it for yourselves –judge for yourselves.

Obama/Hamas 08

We don't need another comedian in the White House. Its bad enough we have had a clown for the past 8 years…

You're all idiots. Every last one of you. I hope you all die before you get old.

god is simply an excuse for what you want. no one can prove otherwise.

Two recent newsworthy items: 1) After McCain is criticized for mentioning the Hamas endorsement of Obama, it is revealed that an Obama advisor has been meeting with Hamas, and 2) After McCain has been criticized for Hagee's endorsement of him, it is revealed that the pastor has apologized and is to meet with the Catholic League.

Now there's change we can believe in!
Americans for McCain '08

Great, I'm an Obama supporter, but we need a laugh.

All the hate needs to stop. There is something happening when people vote not just for the party they belong to but the hopes they hold in common – that whether we are rich or poor; black or white; Latino or Asian; whether we hail from Iowa or New Hampshire, Nevada or South Carolina, we are ready to take this country in a fundamentally new direction. That is what’s happening in America right now. Change is what’s happening in America. You can be the new majority who can lead this nation out of a long political darkness – Democrats, Independents and Republicans who are tired of the division and distraction that has clouded Washington; who know that we can disagree without being disagreeable; who understand that if we mobilize our voices to challenge the money and influence that’s stood in our way and challenge ourselves to reach for something better, there’s no problem we can’t solve – no destiny we cannot fulfill. WE – are the ones WE'VE – been waiting for.

I love seniors. For several years, I volunteered at a convalescent home to bring joy to their life………….. however, seniors should be vacationing, relaxing from life, guiding their grandchildren, retired, writting a memoir, and having fun growing old…………not be running our Country.

Democrats 08.

Fred get a life!!!! Your in every blog posting the same copy and paste message about voting for Mccain if not Hillary. Everybody knows the people who post comments like "If not hillart than maccain" are rush limbaugh psycho republicans….So please go vote for ur mccain you republican and let us democarats get our country back!!

This is from a Hillary supporter who will also vote for Obama cause i am first a democrat and second have a brain!!

I love how moveon looneys come here to post unfunny insults against McCain OR even Hillary. As if you guys are going to change some1's mind!! AHAHAHAHAH McCain is going to be the 44th president of the United States. I can't wait!!!

Sharon's comment needs to be repeated early and often:

Unlike Obama, if you said anything jokingly negative about him a gang of his supporters will come flying out of the woodwork and from under the rocks, accuse you of racism and rip you to shreds.

John'Cindy,Vickie McCain on SNL ? It should be a Party. Lieberman too?

Mccain was no hero even in its "mainstream" sense, as he was NEVER tortured as he has been claiming all along (read the testinomies of the vietnamese people who pulled him out of the lake he fell in and saved him out of pity), as his wounds were from injuries due to crash, and as he readily provide whatever he could to save his but (which is fine by me).

in the non-mainstream sense, he's only a murderous soldier with no conscience to speak of. he's been milking his crimes against humanity (vietnamese and iraqis) for a spot in Hell.

Vickie McCain? will the puppet (liberman )attend? Cindy and Vicki are friend?

Will John "Vickie ,100 years of prosperity of in Iraq" Mccain bring his puppet (lieberman ) with him? John is a natiral for SNL. This is his calling in life. Vicki? HUH?

How will He stand up? Now thats funny…NOT!

Can't wait. It'll be fun to see TWO jokes on the stage.

A joker attending SNL is not news.

McGrandpa is trying too hard. No thanks!

Go Ron Paul Go! run as independent! people are with you all the way!

I'll tune in to see Steve Carrell. Think he'll orchestrate any long, awkward pauses?

McCain's constituency doesn't watch SNL, it's way past their bedtime. Maybe he could sponsor reruns of the Lawrence Welk Show or be a guest host on the Price is Right.

Belle, if you are stupid enough to let the SUPPORTERS of a candidate upset you enough to vote the other way, then you and those like you are weak minded, and were never going to vote for them in the first place….

How 'bout basing your vote on something trivial like…
their position on the war
how will they get us OUT of the war
the mortgage crisis
JOBS, NAFTA, CAFTA,
the economy and how it will be addressed
the price of gas
who will be the least corrupt politician

NO race
NO gender
NO age
NO hate….

AND NO IDIOTIC COMMENTS ABOUT HOW "SO AND SO'S SUPPORTERS ARE SO NASTY…. "wHAAAA".. SO I'M GONNA VOTE THE OTHER WAY…. WHAAAA". I hate resorting to name calling… but WHAT could be more STUPID than that???

I stopped watch SNL since their blatant appeal for Hillary, it's just a failing show after all. Tiny fey and amy poehler suck

John "Vickie" HUH, 100 years of prosperity in Iraq,and povety in America" McCain will be a natural on that show. This might be his calling in life. Will he talk about vickie, or will he bring his puppet(Lieberman) with him? HUH?

The most common sense and true comments I've read here are Chris's from 5/13 at 3:53. Most of you people are really showing your mean spirited side and it's shameful. Where is all this anger and venom coming from? Wow, Chris, right on target!

I guess you all missed McCain on David Letterman two months ago, he was very funny trading jokes about each other.

Go right ahead you twinkle toes and bash McCain. That man has more cuts, intelligence and endurance that any of you sarcastic panty waists.

Say what you want…McCain is going to WIN! Signed- a young, liberal, against the war, educated female, independent, with a multiracial family who is voting for McCain. The dems don't have it together and don't deserve my vote. And if you think that ANYONE can snap their fingers and get us out of Iraq, then you are seriously being bluffed.

SNL is a has been show. Old babyboomers looking to reconnect with their lost childhood are their main audience now..

Sounds like a good time! That's what America needs is someone who can stand up to a good roasting…. like Lewis Black said: "the only thing that seperates us from our enemies, is our sense of humor"

Is it true Hillary is going to be on Dancing with the Stars? That's about her speed, she's so desperate to keep in the limelight.

I am LOVING how the "feminists" are going to undo themselves, voting against their own best interests by putting McCain in office just because they aren't getting Hillary nominated! This is hilarious! They're proving that nobody EVER nominate a woman for president again, because too many women can't seperate the candidate from the gender! Nobody's going to want to risk another inter-party civil war again, thanks to the crossover Hillary supporters. Once again, so-called "feminists" are their own worst enemies! I hope you're still smug when Roe V. Wade gets overturned on McCain's watch!

McCain has Hagee and a few others. Obama has Wright.

I look forward to the day when we can put modern religions in the same category as the Greek and Roman Gods. Nice stories and myths. Every time I see something on Hagee or Wright I become more and more of an atheist.

I HATE OLD PEOPLE!!

McCain is sooooo OLD!!

Wanna hear a funny joke about an old person?!?!?

Or maybe we should respect our elders??

Respect isn't exactly a quality you see in Obama supporters…

Doug said "How pathetic for McCain and desperate of SNL to have this fraud appear on their show."

I think it's hilarious that some of you guys are getting all fired-up about SNL. All the candidates are supposed to get equal time on shows like this. It's not like SNL is endorcing one or the other by having them on the show. Plus, this gives them a chance to completely make fun of McCain right to his face! Priceless!

Stephen Colbert '08!
(I haven't given up, Stephen!)

Maybe "Songbird" McCain will sing like he did at the Hanoi Hilton for his North Vietnamese captors in the '60's.

The song might be something like "here are the attack altitudes, package routes, flight paths of all the fixed wing fighter aircraft flying over North Vietnam..la de da… now give me medical attention, an apartment in Hanoi and a couple hookers…doo be doo!

CNN if you are going to censor the live blog what is the point of it?
CNN stop the bias.
Why not do a report on how Obama’s campaign is negotiating with terrorist. Why not investigate the Robert Melloy story.
Anderson cooper didn’t even mention it on 360 last night.
CNN shame on you for being bias.

I am not a Hillary supporter but the way CNN is promoting Obama is unethical and Hillary supporters should be
furious with CNN.

John McCain is an honorable man and he is the only one for the job.

Mai you are so ignorant is pathetic, you shouldn't be allowed to even comment !!!

John McCain: The Not-Ready-For-Primetime-President (candidate).

Can you guys answer this question… Can Hillary run as an Independant? Any chance of her running as John McCain's VP? That would ensure the Republicans a win in November.

no one can say CNN didn't try to get mccain elected for their neocon masters.

You know if you are not talking about Hiliary and Obama people could care less…did you not notice how many less repsonse you get
about MCain… I won't be watching SNL

How can you be more electable if you have no money?

Why is it that racism evokes anger and outrage, but ageism is supposed to be funny?

Let Hillary's supporters vote for McCain. Obama supporters should STOP appealing to these people. Clearly, these people will be rejected later by the Republicans.

The Republicans, like the Democrats, like bright and intelligent folks. So, plase stop appealing to the Clinton folks who are "bitter;" let them move on so that Obama can be better organized.

If Hillary cannot beat Obama, how is she going to beat MCain and the hungry Republicans?

Since the nasty Obama supporters need to get their digs in on each article, regardless of subject, I'm going to take the time to thank them for pushing the Clinton supporters to vote for McCain. You should all be commended om choosing the next republican president!

SNL has officially "Jumped the Shark".

McCain is simply…not FUNNY.

Since SNL is the lamest and least funny show on TV, McCain should have no problem.

McCain is already a parody of himself.

All they should do is play clips of McCain saying one thing, then a clip of him saying another. "I was against the bush tax cuts, I was against the Bush tax cuts because they did not pay for it with a cut in spending, Im for the Bush tax cuts, I'm for the tax cuts without a cut in spending….. Sunni, shia whats the difference…. "

He would be hillarious if he wasn't taken seriously by the dumbest in the country. Maybe he will change his mind on running too!

I heard Lieberman and Keating will be joining Mr. McCain in a three stooges set.

Well I am 100% for Obama but I think McCain is funny. He made me laugh out loud on the Daily Show. I also have laughed uproariously at Obama on Letterman and Huckabee on everything. Clinton tries to be funny but wow she always looks like she's in pain when she does.

It's way more fun when politicians poke fun at themselves. I can only take so many news shows.

McSame is a living joke and SNL should hire him full time along with his pals Bush and Chaney. They could call the segment "THE THREE ZEROS".

Hillary supporters make Dubya supporters look like Rhodes scholars.

Wow! to McCain, I wouldn't have agreed to that

I'm guessing that he'll punch Carrell in the face and call Amy Poehler what he called his wife.

McCain will make a better comedian than president.

McCain reminds me of a lizard.

As a Clinton supporter, I have accepted ythe fact that she won't by the
President. That however doesn't meanI will vote for O'Bama.

If he wasn't my choice from the beginning, why should I change my beliefs.?

This has nothing to do with race because Senator O'Bama are both
Black. He's just not qualified enough for ME.

16 million votes won't get him to the White House.

Looks like McCain will be the next President!!

I am one of MILLIONS of Democarts that WILL NOT vote for Obama!!

i will WRITE IN HILLARY!!!

SNL should boost him up.

I'm looking forward to it both because I love Steve Carrell and because I do think John McCain has been pretty funny so far (john Stewart, American Idol), also my hat goes off to SNL for not playing to one side.

GAG… I'll make sure I don't tune in….

McCane the funnyman? I don't think so…. what's funny about the Bush Wars he supports or the sinking economy?

Republicans just aren't funny……

not even pseudo-wannabe-intellect dennis miller.

McWinner. It has a nice ring to it.

Americans for McCain '08

SNL is still around?

I am a democrat. I will vote for McCain because he has military experience which neither Clinton, or Obama has ever experienced. The only exception would be if McCain picked some of the same-old, same-old goof-ball for the Vice-President, then I guess I will flip a coin.

Who Cares about McCain?

The War in Iraq and your vote for it isn't funny!!

If you vote for Obama, please do not complain when you start spending 90% of your income on other people.

"silghtly less rosy picture of her" – good one Jeanne. SNL tore her a new one!

I would remind my fellow Jews that the Democrat party (especially Jimmy Carter) is no friend of Jews or Israel.

I don't trust Obama, Wright or Farrakhan, do you?

We stopped Al Gore here in Miami Beach in 2000 and we can sure stop Obama here in 2008!

Sid has an excellent point. The popular vote is meaningless if it does not take into account the caucus states. It should not be a basis for anything in this nominating process and it seems that the superdelegates are smart enough to realize this. If you do away with caucuses and make all states hold primaries, then we'd have a level playing field and you could argue for the popular vote. Until that happens, the only thing that matters is the delegate count. This nominating process is over.

If McCain really wants to make 'em laugh… all he needs to do is talk about his health care "plan"

That'll leave 'em in stitches!

Is there a reason CNN has not reported polls taken in Oregon, Montana, and South Dakota, but only the states where Clinton is leading? Time to be gracious on both sides for all Democrats now. No foolish boasting, no foolish bitterness.

As I have noted repeatedly, only those who have had at least a "semester" of college should be allowed to vote for the nominee of the presidency.

We expect our president to be bright, morally strong, and quite understanding to the needs of others. Equally, we should expect the voters to be educated as they make such an important decision!

I hope the so called conservatives would note vote for Mccain, but my filling is they will, this idiots do not have the brain to comapare and contrast if you are not republican they would not vote for you, they have been brain washed years ago, and they ge screwed over and over eight years of Bush and they will still vote for Mccain knowing he will continue where Bush left off. Conservatives make me sick I just hope God willing I do not have to see republican in the white house for the coming 100 years.

And, the Boomer vote just might go to McCAin, and the Boomers do vote, unlike the youth vote living on the sofa in front of the TV in their digusted parents' living room

Lets face it, Obama needs Hillary and so does the Democratic Party….If she cannot get the respected votes from the Florida and Michigan Primary to win the nomination I dont see how the democratic party can afford to turn off so many people and expect to win. Hillary supporters will divide the party and choose a liberal republican to side with come November….And finally to all of those people that have to bring Bill into every equation when speaking about Hillary, let it go! Obviously he is going to be involved in this election, what spouse hasnt been in an election? He just happened to be a past president, let her views take shape as well as her committment to the American People as an individual.

John McCain's people are going to try and do everything to paint him as the funny, empathatic, even tempered, caring man he is NOT. Fortunately people aren't that dumb to buy the nonsense and I predict he will lose that famous temper in a big way before the election.

Who cares!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LIke I care that an old grouch is going to appear on SNL what a joke!!!!!!

McCain..be yourself- that is what I love about you

It does not suit your age when you try to look funny and young..

Would any American citizen vote for an active KKK member? The answer is no, that person would not be allowed on the ballot. Yet., the church that Senator Obama attends and supports is the African American version of the KKK. Senator Obama and church members believe that BLACKS ARE THE CHOSEN PEOPLE. That is as racist as the KKK.

Anyone except Obama, the Marxist, racist and corrupt Chicago politician.

SNL is now offically uncool.

This should be fun to watch!

SNL – really blasted Hillary last week!

I laughed like never before!

Go Obama!

NOTICE how CNN only LETS A FEW PEOPLE COMMENT ON THE BARACK STORIES .. BUT LETS UP TO 800 BARACK SUPPORTERS COMMENT ON ANYTHING AGAINST HILLARY … WHATS UP WITH THAT .???
Im sure this wont get in , cause its against Barack the chosen one

who cares

All this hate warms me up..

Barry O8
Socialism at last!

Hillary may be regretting her appearance now that SNL has painted a slightly less rosy picture of her. Of course candidates need to reach particular audiences but they might want to take a closer look at the source before doing so.

JOHN MCCAIN WILL HAVE A BOB DOLE MOMENT I PROMISE YOU AND HE WILL BE DONE. IT WILL HAPPEN HE IS ON MEDICARE PEOPLE AND HE IS 72YRS OLD . WE CAN"T HAVE A PRESIDENT THAT CAN WAKE UP ONE MORNING AND FORGET WHO HE IS AND WALK OUT THE WHITE HOUSE LOOKING FOR BILLY HIS CHILDHOOD FREIND.

An honorable has-been, trying to pander to the youth vote. How very sad.

Why is there such venom in this election?

If you don't like a candidate, don't vote for him or her. Leave it at that.

Why is debate dying in America. If someone has a different view of America, they are not evil, vile or destroying democracy. They simply have a different view. The responses on blogs, chat rooms and forums during the primaries has been focused on solely on the negative.

Hillary Clinton. Barack Obama, John McCain.

These three have done far more for your country than all of you.

So if you don't like them……DON'T VOTE FOR THEM, but remember their comittment to America in the past should never be summarily dismissed simply because you want "your candidate" to win.

Act like adults, deserving of the greatness of your nation, not like petulant children who didn't get their way.

Thank God I go to bed early. PLEASE spare us the boring re-runs on CNN next week !!

McCain is the only one of the three with a sense of humor. He is self-deprecating, witty and the least pompous.
You all are grouchy!

Aw c'mon, gang, just let him have a laugh or two. Politics is humorless enough. While the candidates say really funny things, it's usually not intentional. There's nothing wrong with a sense of humor…

McCain is a loser.

I am confused by Hillary supporters who indicate they will vote for McCain if Obama gets the Dem. nomination! Are you folks not Democrats!!?? Would you really prefer to cut off your nose just to spite your face?

McCain is not an independent! He is a Bush Republican! He has sold out any "maverick inclinations" in him to pander to the right-wing conservative base of the Republicans. His reversal on the tax cuts, his speech on appointing conservative judges, his denial of not having voted for Bush, etc. all speak to this pandering.

Obama is a black man running for president. He has received Secret Service protection earlier than any other candidate in history. His life, his wife's life and the lives of their two daughters are being threatened every day. Would not only a patriot go through this!?

Don’t Obama and Hillary agree on most major issues!?

Thus, the questions become: Are you more racist than Democrat!?
Are you more racist than pro choice!? Are you more racist than anti-tax cuts for the rich!?

Look at the democratic fools lining up for VP. Here are a few possible tickets:

Obama/Hamas 2008

Obama/Rev Wright 2008

Obama/Ayers 2008

Obama/Sharpton 2008

Let's go. Rally around these potential running mates. Obama's wife is anti american, his pastor is a racist and anti american, his friends support terror and are racist. Do you think he is any different? How diverse is your group of friends and family? You hang with people who are just like you. Look at who Obama has been hanging with all these years to figure out who he is like..

WAKE UP AMERICA

Vote for someone who has shown that he loves this country and is Proud to be an American. Johh McCain.

How pathetic for McCain and desperate of SNL to have this fraud appear on their show.
McCain and the SNL crowd/ viewers have absolutely nothing in common.

I hope he sings again, I loved his Streisand bit last time. Being able to poke fun at yourself is a good quality.

SNL WILL HAVE ANYBODY THAT WILL GIVE US A LAUGH. MCBUSH MUST DIDN'T GET THE HINT FROM HRC LITTLE BIT ON SNL. THIS MAN REALLY DON'T GET IT. HE IS NOW PLAYING ON A YOUNG GENERATION 'S STAGE.

You better enjoy your last few days out of the sights of the Obama machine and the media, McSame!

Obama's gonna clean Mcsames clock, when he can finally focus on his republican opponent, instead of constantly having to shake off that yippy little ankle-biter.

Republican general election machine? Hah!! If they think those dated, old-school Karl Rove tactics are gonna work in 2008, then it just proves how irrelavent they've become.

McSame better get ready…there's a frieght train called Obama headed right for him!!

A funny thing happend to John McCain on the way to the general election. The Democrats failed to nominate their shoo-in candidate, Senator Clinton, and instead opted for the slick talking but totally inexperienced Obama, which led to a runaway winning election for Senator McCain.

"Live from Washington DC – It's Good Night Democrats"

It's always interesting to see liberals reveal their true feelings about the worth of seniors.

Maybe the show will open with his singing "Bomb Bomb Iran".

Who cares.. won't help him any……………………

Ummm so what?

I've got a couple of good skits for McCain and SNL. Please show him fighting alongside Teddy and the Rough Riders since he must have battle scars from that era, and please do the skit of McCain discovering electricity with Benjamin Franklin since he must have lighting burns from that experience too. Maybe SNL can also show McCain helping his mother sew the U.S. Flag with Betsy Ross. The only person older than McCain is his mother. That's why he's always having his picture made with her. Unfortunately, not even his mother can make him look young. The guy has got a couple of centuries of experience under his belt; he is, after all, old. Heck! McCain was probably a grandfather when George H. was born.

SO WHAT

It's interesting on how Barack is not to be taken seriously for not taking W. Va when Hillary has not taken none of the following:

Iowa
South Carolina
Alabama
Alaska
Colorado
Connecticut
Delaware
Democrats Abroad
Georgia
Idaho
Kansas
Minnesota
North Dakota
Utah
Nebraska
Washington
Maine
Wisconsin
Wyoming
Vermont
Mississippi
…no need to go on, I think we get the point.

It's time for the democratic supporters on both sides to
grow up. This is shameful for me a young independent supporter
of the democratic party to feel like I'm in a Republican/Democratic
race already. This is tasteless and you people should understand
by supporting McCain shows the obvious bigotry that rest in many of your hearts. It's not about not supporting Obama because he's a liar or lack of experience, (if that's the case –Hillary?) and you all know it. It's more than that and I'm not ashamed to say it, the democrats have just the same amount of racist bigots as the republicans. If not more. Please people show the young leaders that we have a process to abide by and respect for our Country. We look like idiots fighting for the same seat to bring better to us as Americans. Enough already! Please!

Wait for it…………………….Dems dissing McCain for showing his ligher side. I can hear their shameful crap now. It must be a dismal life to live in bitterness day in and day out!

McCain/Shrute 08

Lighten up libs. You'll get your pathetic turn.

If you vote for McCain, please do not complain when you start spending 90% of your income on gas and food.

This is really pathetic. I will be better for McCain to be himself that to be someone he's not. His singing was horrible just like how I see his presidiency to be. Barack Obama is the real deal.

I think he should take it easy before he risks a heart-attack..
Let's face it: this is not an old man's job…

Obama/Hagel 2008

McClinton working it on SNL.

Shame on YOU HILLARY for DISENFRANCHISING voters from the following caucus states:

iowa
nevada
alaska
colorado
idaho
kansas
minnesota
north dakota
nebraska
washington
maine
hawaii
texas
wyoming

You DID NOT win the popular vote, even with Michigan and Florida. Don't spread these lies.

Really? This is news? You can't tell me that the Obama and McCain camps haven't at least exchanged some useful tit for tat on a point of disagreement today.

Seriously – could the mainstream media MAYBE give us some info about the candidates positions, or just ANYTHING that might be useful to uninformed voters? Or do we all really just have to read about McCain going on SNL.

*sigh*

Yawn. What a pathetic feeble attempt to seduce the young voters. Nice try McCaine… you'll be laughed AT… not "WITH".

Do they have a teleprompter for him?.. I"m sure in his monitone voice that he'll try to say something funny….He's an old man in a young man's game, he'll appeal to those over 70, but they'll be in bed before SNL is on.

Lorne Michaels for VP!!!!!!!!
Tina Fey Secretary of State!!!!!!!!

SNL must be desperate for material. How boring, I see John McCain and I want to go to sleep. That poor guy does not even have a pep in his step. I think I will watch a re-run of anything else.

JOHN MCCAIN PROMISED HIS MEDICAL RECORDS THIS MONTH, WHERE ARE THEY?

He (McCain) has a good sense of humor and can stand up to a good roasting by anybody, any day.

Unlike Obama, if you said anything jokingly negative about him a gang of his supporters will come flying out of the woodwork and from under the rocks, accuse you of racism and rip you to shreds.

We will need a president who can be challenged in the coming years. It should be either Clinton or McCain and not a Jr. Senator who can't be questioned about anything, anytime or anywhere.

Well, SNL ripped Clinton apart. Can't wait to see what they do w/McCain. Why on earth do they set themselves up for this? What cost free air time?

Isn't SNL past his bed time?

Do you think its worth making her VP and wasting that spot! do you want to see Clinton walking aroung near white house again !!!

Here comes the Pandering Express!

"All aboard!"

McCain will not get my vote. Bush can tell a better joke than McCain and I hate Bush.

I have more wit in my toe nail clippings than McCain does in a life time.

Why is this at the top of the ticker?

Now that should be funny!

What is he going to do? A paradoy of himself? Can't imagine him being funny. I must congratulate SNL for their Hillary skit last weekend. That was sooo funny and soo true! You nailed her!

Well McCain, I'll vote for you if the sexist pigs get the weakest link Obama in as nominee with the dirty way they've played politics. You will win and Hillary will spend 4 years pointing as you illustrate why you should never have been elected.

HILLARY 08 OR 12 FO SHO

Remind me…..Who cares, again?

She would be a better VP the Hillary…..

I think McCain should go on the Golden Girls'

Is he still awake at that time of night?

This guy is NOT funny, he is scary.

Oh oh…that would probably be a disaster.

how will he ever stay awake for it?

ummm, grampa, give it up. the youth vote goes to obama and clinton, NOT you!

he wasnt funny on jon stewart either!
