[...] to the Political Ticker blog, John McCain is going to appear on this weekend's Saturday Night Live, where he's been a favorite guest over the years. [...]

McCain funded Terrorists Ayres, and Kilada. I saw that last night too, why isn't more of the press investigating this!

Concerned in MA October 31st, 2008 9:21 am ET

My vote is NOT FOR SALE – AT ANY PRICE.

But if yours is, here's some FACTS to all who love the Obama Tax Plan.

I went to his website and used the "savings calculator". Some quick numbers for you…

My wife and I combined make about 100K. We no longer have dependents, and we have a mortgage. Popped those numbers into his calculator – I save $1800.

So let's see… averaged out, me and my wife each get a raise of 42 cents an hour.

YIPPEEEEEEEEE!!!!!

So if my vote was for sale… which IT IS NOT… we'd get an extra Domino's pizza (no toppings) every week!

Do the math people. What would you rather have – a cheese pizza or your job?
-------------------------------–

What you neglected to say was how much you saved under McCain. Could it be that you didn't save SH!T under McCain's tax plan? How much is your mortgage, I want to see what you're talking about based on your post or are you just full of crap. Just unnecessary hate against a man who has not done anything to you.

What a joke for John McCain to be on SNL. He and Sarah should be clowns for circus instead of running the government. We don't want these clowns in White House.

John McCain & Sarah Palin are not trustworthy just like President Bush & Vice President Cheney.

McCain is no better than his partner Sarah so they should not the attacks and talk about the issues. Joe the Plumber is not an issue.

JOE THE PLUMBER is a SKIN HEAD and has the hair cut to prove it!!! He was caught on camera speaking to "so-called" supporters about Israel and even though the "other guy" was off camera – you got a "head full" of what he was saying and what he stood for.

Then, Joe the "PUMPER" agreed with him and shook his hand... You already can tell the crowd he is collecting is not your BEST CROWD of people. He and PA'IN are very capable of "igniting" an already "sensitive" moment in our history and cause problems in the very near future.

They are all (SNLs – SorryNincompoopLosers!!!) and all they have left is appearing on SNL.............. OBAMA/BIDEN 2008-2016!!!

TO: MN VOTER -

Your very clever but don't represent the 60% of us who are voting for Obama in MN or probably even the 38% favoring McCain. MN is better than that....move to Alaska if you want to aim low.

Let Senator McCain go on SNL. He won't be talking the issues, he will be making fun of himself. It's kinda sad actually.

Independent now:

Apparently you never watch "Morning Joe" on MSNBC – they trash Obama every single morning to the point where i could not watch any more – every day – "why can't he close the deal" – Joe Scarborough, Mike Murphy, Mika B. , Pat Buchannan – they LOVE to talk down Obama every morning. If you want to see constant adoration for McCain just tune in at 6 a.m. or of course – FOX runs McCain love spots 24/7.

Mn voter, TAKE A GOOD LOOK IN THE MIRROR AND TELL US WHAT YOU SEE!

McCain/Palin 2008!!

It's the only choice for America!!

My vote and my future are for McCain/Palin!

McCain never talk about what people wants to hear about that's what is upsetting voters also he is so busy trying to tear Obama down that he can't see the writing on the wall , then he had to go and pick that woman and that really send people running the other way. The Republicans keeps sing this song about Obama needing on the job training but face it people so will all of them. If you have never done a job before then that means you have to learn the job. It is funny that it seems like when Obama went over seas he got a warmer greeting than McCain then, face it folks Obama just something about him that people seems to like. Just like Martin Luther King. Cindy McCain doesn't look that well either and it is not the looks but the brain power that draws people to Michelle Obama thank you.

McCain funded Terrorists Ayres, and Kilada

Mn Voter:
What kind of sick drivvel is that? What on EARTH do Michelle Obama's looks, and your opinion of them (you are obviously a racist pig) have a whit to do with the issues at hand????
No wonder you all love McCain and Palin.... peas in a pod.

I'll be watching. From the looks of things, Sen. McCain should really put all of his eggs in this basket, since I don't think the Presidential thing is gonna work out.

John: Study your lines, practice your delivery, and hope Lorne will offer you a job after Tuesday!

Maybe Palin and McCain, if they lose, will leave government and take their comedy acts on the road. They both seem more suited for jokes than putting their country first. I thought the Clintons were divisive, but the two of them are even more so, and they actually think that no one else notices. remember, you can fool some of the people some of the time.

you are right anonymous-sorry i stooped to mn voter's level.

I don't think it's fair to give a candidate and/or his running mate airtime on a show so close to the election, just because the show dared to poke fun at them a few weeks ago when the campaign was still rather young...

So much for the often claimed "bias" of the "liberal" mainstream media...

At this point Sen. McCain would sell his sole to get elected. It was funny to see Gov. Palin (and Tina Fey) on SNL. It will not be funny to see him.

I also did my tax cut on Sen. Obama's website. I would get $1,800 back too. I have two kids, a house and my household income is between 130K and 140K.

I would glady take the $1,800 back. If you don't want it, then give it the Commonwealth of MA. It is my understanding that Gov. D. Patrick has had to cut alot of spending and the budget is still not balanced.

They need to do a skit with McCain doing his stump speech and a fat lady with a viking hemet is walking around in the background humming. Tina Fey comes in and is trying to get her off the stage. McCain trys to break up the fight and he and the fat lady falls off the stage. Tina steps up to the mic and start doing her acceptance speech.

Mn voter just a quick question, how old are you, five?

Mn Voter,

You're welcome to feel however you want about Michelle Obama being "to ugly" to be first lady... but, as a reminder... Barbara Bush!

Besides, since you went there, it sounds like you may have a thing for Cindy McCain...

Not everyone wants to dump their first wife for a rich trophy wife who is almost 20 years younger... that's what you're choosing in a new president...

John as Sarah would say Maybe it will be a task of God to let you loose your home state. John and Sarah what goes around comes around.

To Mn voter October 31st, 2008 9:28 am ET

Your comments are so stupid that I'm guessing that you have a terrible complex…it's sad that one could even think like you do, I really feel sorry for you.

@ Mark.....You are a sore LOSER and all of your anti Obama smears fall in line with that Moron and his Whack job side kick you support.
Where is McCain????? WAY BEHIND IN THE POLLS!!!!!!!!!!! LOSER.

Well since McCain is already the butt of jokes on late night talk shows he might as well make himself a even bigger loser.

Thanks for the heads-up, CNN. Now I know what not to watch Saturday.

Mn voter. Wow, such hatred. I can't imagine hating someone so much whom I've never met. I feel really sorry for you...

He doesn't need to do anymore comedy. His campaign has been one big joke!

SameNincompoopLoser would appear on SNL the last weekend before voting?????!!!!!!! This is not a "LAUGHING" matter and SNL is not John McSAME's best friend..... GET SERIOUS!!!

OBAMA WILL WIN ON TUESDAY – YES WE CAN!!!

Do not watch SNL this weekend. The lower the ratings the better. The bored pundits on television will then talk about how so few people watched SNL and they will then draw negative conclusions. Wait for the clips to show on the networks or online if you're interested.

hey, MODERATOR, so nothing i write is worth being posted on your blog?...come on now...

Obama/Biden 08

Kina.

I can't believe how many people are supporting a man who has ties with terrorist. Wake up – read his own books about marxism.

You need to think about the right candidate and not the person who can give a good speech. No substance there.

I would think that nearly $2000 EXTRA wouldn't be lost on a sensible family making $100k a year. Your math needs work or you are foolishly wasting your money for your "cheese-only" pizza. $1800 is $35 extra dollars a week. That's gas money or you could even try something different and take your wife out to the pizzeria.

"If Democrats win full control of government, they will want to give civil rights to terrorists"

We will give basic human rights to suspected terrorists. The Bush Administration has released dozens of detainees from Gitmo, which pretty clearly shows that not every person the US government detains is NOT actually a terrorist. Timothy McVeigh and Terry Nichols were not deprived of their civil rights. They were tried, and they were punished. McVeigh was sentenced to death, Nichols was sentenced to life in prison, but at no point did they lose their basic human rights. Charles Manson faced trial. Jeffrey Dahmer faced trial. Saddam frigging Hussein faced trial.

That red herring aside, the fact that Arizona is in play shows how totally sunk McCain is. I don't expect him to lose there, but a slim win in AZ will be further humiliation for him.

McCain funded Terrorists Ayres, and Kilada

Joe Biden is the least intelligent of all 4 candidates. The guy is just dumb. If Sarah Palin said half of the things he has said you Liberal goons would be all over her. Instead, you excuse his asinine comments as "Joe being Joe." President Bush had a Harvard MBA and you thought he was stupid. More hypocrisy from the Left.

Mn voter October 31st, 2008 9:28 am ET

For you obama writers writing all the insults about MCCain and Palin here are some for you. Mrs. obama is to ugly to be first lady. Her mother had to tie a pork chop around her neck so the dog would play with her. If she traveled around the world she's so ugly she would scare the other leaders so bad they would run and hide. Iran would start a war with us just to get rid of her. She is just as weird as her husband.

WOW! outright ugly and offensive. Vote or don't vote because you agree or disagree with a canditate's policies. Personal attacks and just unchristian and unjustified. Whoever you are...I'm praying for you. May God take the hate out of your heart.

Awesome! I heard SNL was looking for someone to play that mean, crazy and grumpy uncle every family has, in their Halloween sketch. So there! Perfect match!

Mn Voter. I wonder what you look like. Just because you are for McCain doesn't mean she is ugly because she is married to Obama

YOU ALL MUST ADMIT MCCAIN IS WITH OUT A DOUBT THE BEST AT COMEDY. HIS SKITS ON SNL ARE TO DIE FOR. EVERY TIME I SEE MSNBC TRASH MCCAIN DAY AFTER DAY AFTER DAY. AND WORSHIP THE GROUND OBAMA WALKS ON. MAKES ME SEE HOW UNFAIR THIS PROCESS IS HOW BIAS NBC IS AND HOW I WILL VOTE FOR THE UNDERDOG. BECAUSE HE DIDNT LIE TO THE AMERICAN PUBLIC ABOUT CAMPAIGN FUNDING. OBAMA S FIRST TASK AT HAND, FIRST PROMISE HE BROKE... TELLS ME WHAT TYPE OF WHITE HOUSE HE WILL RUN. CORUPT. HE HASNT EVEN APPOLIGIZED FOR LIEING, AND BREAKING AN OATH HE SIGNED WITH HIS OWN HAND. CAN NOT TRUST HIM, CANNOT VOTE FOR HIM. I USE TO BE A DEM, UNTIL MSNBC PARTED THE SEAS FOR OBAMA TO WALK ACROSS. SHAME ON NBC. ELECTION BOUGHT AND PAID FOR. SHAME ON THIS COUNTRY

The repubs are running out time and ideas, they are being eratic and confused about what to do to fix the mess we are in thanks to Bush and McCain.

Obama/Biden 08/12.

early on I considered voting for Mcain because, even though I am
a democrat (although I have voted here and there for certain Republican
candidates)...

that all changed when he chose his running mate...Sara Palin....that
all changed when he showed the bad judgement his addled mind made.
as they say, he made a deal with the devil showing even the best of us can be bought....

I began to form opinions on him....other than the ones ads and media drill into us all.....

these are my thoughts here that I share with you: The Keating Five -
he was one of them (not mentioned much in the press). His first
marriage which ended because he loved a rich, young, woman more
than he loved a woman crippled by a horrific car accident (what does
that say about marriage vows?)....and last, probably because it irks
me the most......the clothes that Cindy McCain flaunts...$300,000
dress for the convention....not dwarfed by the daily fashion show
we see...utterly incredible ....a true life barbie doll....the cost of this
extravaganza of a wardrobe is beyond one's imagination...how dare
she and her husband flaunt such riches while our country is
bleeding financially.?????

McCain's campaign is pitiful. He doesn't focus on WHAT he will do or HOW he'll do it. He's just making absurd accusations like "measuring the drapes" or "Obama will redistribute your wealth around". It doesn't seem to matter how many times those pseudio-facts heve been disproven. He hammers on like a broken record, hoping undecided voters are dumb. And now it's robot calls... underground accusations delivered at home. Ayers, Wright... the PLO, McCain has tried it all. No matter that by the same reasoning McCain chaired a committee that had the same involvement with the PLO. No matter some of the preachers that support McCain have some very extremist, some even abhorrent, views... McCain keeps accusing. That's not determination... it's pathetic and despicable.

I don't think the american people know McCain at all. Everybody says he is an honourable man. I thought so, too. But the McCain that's been revealing himself in this campaign is anything but honourable.

I`ts amazing how John McBush / Sarah Palin are getting all this free air time on the tube lately .......
The media complained about Palin not exposing herself to the news media , as other VP candidates did in the past , so why give her or John McBush any free air time ?
I , for one am sick and tired of the way the media bows down to these republicrook liars and fear mongers .
They try to devide America . I`m sick of Joe the plumber , hockey moms , nascar dads , and all the other juvenile slogans the McBush campaign spews on a daily basis .
If they cant expose themselves to the legitimate media to be asked , and answer questions that the public want , then I say , make them pay for their air time .

yeah, it figures CNN wouldn't want me to link to the Rachel Maddow video of Obama telling us in very minute detail what he's going to do for this country....

SORRY BILL
I MEANT MARK

We laughed (a lot), but America has to be grateful because SNL vetted Sarah Palin in front of a national audience.

I think McCain and Joe the joke should appear together, drinking koolaid.

Like everything else, did his family connections get him a spot on SNL? Too late for McLies

MCain is good sport. Considering all the attacks he's had, he's not afraid. I didn't watch the Infobrainwashing by Obama, but will watch SNL to catch McCain.

Dale,

Did you not see the SNL when Palin appeared? The Amy Poehler rap did nothing less than make fun of her right in front of her face. They smeared her and she sat there and danced. She's too dense to even realize they're completely humiliating her.

It was great by the way if you didn't see it you should youtube it or something.

The on ething that gets me about McCain when he was vetting the VP pick...he should haveal least conisdered getting someone smarter than G.W. Bush

It appears McCain and Palin are to stupid to understand SNL is making them look like the fools that they are.

BILL
you are a pathedic joke
use a park bench vote a lot
unamerican
we as decent americans do not stoop to republicans level, as i feel you are rep/
all bloggers,pray for bill

Oh well

It's good to take the state home from McCain, he needs some humility, after telling lies, slandering, liable, and enticing hate and fear, this will put him in his place, which is the losing column! McCain choice of Palin would make a complete joke of the Office of the President and Vice President!

To Mn voter October 31st, 2008 9:28 am ET

Your comments are so stupid that I'm guessing that you have a terrible complex...it's sad that one could even think like you do!

THE SHOW HAS NOT BEEN FUNNY IN YEARS.
I HAVE NOT WATCHED IT IN YEARS AND WILL NOT WATCH IT NOW.
MAYBE JOHNNIE BOY IS REHEARSING TO TAKE HIS SHOW ON THE ROAD AFTER TUESDAY.
THINK ABOUT THE PROGRAM-AIRHEAD PALIN OPENING FOR JOE THE PLUMBER AND MC CAIN

Mark – you do not speak for anyone supporting Obama. Go ahead and spew your lies. Typical Republican crap.

MN Voter: Grow up

Mccain no need to go on SNL for comedy all one has to do is watch your Campaign I mean fake Plumbers standing you up,A Girl beating the crap out of herself carving her face A VP That has no Idea what shes talking about and is gonna try to stab you in the back for her own political gain MCCAIN YOUR CAMPAIGN IS COMEDY ENOUGH!

Fox is reporting that the Obama campaign is kicking the Washington Times off their plane. This paper endorsed McCain. What is this about, CNN?

Last night in his speech in Missouri Obama said he wanted to fundamentally change America. Can someone please tell me what fundamentals he wants to change? Because I like America's fundamentals. He already said he is going to change from capitalism to socialism with his spread the wealth plan. Is he also going to change the fundamentals like the ability to bear arms, freedom of speech, freedom of religion and one person one vote? I know many of you feel the way I do that things need to be fixed in our system, but I for one do not want the fundamentals that built our nation and made it the great nation it is, changed. That is why I will not vote for Obama on Tuesday.

And the guy cracking on Michelle thinks Cindy "Quaaludes" McCain is pretty? Imagine those big watery stoned eyes for four more years. She's so obviously high at these rallies I'm surprised someone hasn't called her on it.

Look McCain only thing funny is you trying to be the PRESIDENT, you picking SARAH PAILN as your VP. And your wife acting like she loves America so much that she would steal pills to support her drug habbit. And what else is funny is "JOE the no plummer license" bald heaed idiot that you keep calling to your rallies to save the day. Oh one more thing is funny, that you had to send thousands of KIDS to fill in on your rallys and your the TOP of the ticket.

NOW THATS FUNNY

SNL is the perfect place for McCain......because his entire campaign is a joke !!!!!

Still not funny and he has been trying to be funny at times on this campain. Boooooo. Sorry my friends. He is not a comedian. lol either is Obama lol

McCain is so old his social security number is 3. Adam and Eve were 1 and 2. He is still waiting on his tips from busing tables at the, "Last Supper."

THE SHOW HAS NOT BEEN FUNNY IN YEARS.
I HAVE NOT WATCHED IT IN YEARS AND WILL NOT WATCH IT NOW.
MAYBE JOHNNIE BOY IS REHEARSING TO TAKE HIS SHOW ON THE ROAD AFTER TUESDAY.
MAYBE HE SHOULD CONSIDER TOURING WITH THE ROLLING STONES...

oooh. That is a mistake. The less people see of him the better. It didn't do Palin any good.

Concerned in MA:

Next year, when Obama gives you that $1800 tax break, can I have it since you don't want it? I promise you, i'll still have my job and i'll put it towards a vacation!!

Well lets see here. Obama has been campaigning with the Clintons and had the most impressive 30 minutes ever on TV and spoke in a calm rational manner about hope, unity,and a brighter future. McCain has the "Joe Duh Plummer" campaign along with Palins tour of fear,hate and lies.Quite the differences there. Now I will watch SNL if McCain finally brings out Ashton Kutcher to announce to the world we have all been part of the longest running Punked episode ever.Maybe McCain could get some international respect back if he did this. If he carries on it will just show the world that he has run the worst campaign in history.

Everyone who is bashing McCain-Palin are just afraid of how well the republicans will turn this country around.

We want leaders now, not MAVERICKS. Duh!! Do they think all Americans are stupid?

McBORING! HE CAN'T EVEN DRAW A CROWD AT HIS RALLIES!!

To Concerned In MA

"Do the math people. What would you rather have – a cheese pizza or your job?"

I take that to mean if I vote for Obama I will get cheese pizza every week and if I vote for McElmerFud I will lose my job. Thanks for enlightening me. I think I'll take the pizza!!!

@ Advocate50 -

It's not that $1800 is insignificant. I'm simply saying that the Obama supporters think that because they're going to get a tax break (or for those who don't pay taxes, a welfare check), they should vote for him.

Just trying to put it into perspective, my liberal friend. A cheese pizza for electing an unknown quantity?

No thank you.

All these people who claim that they have not made up their minds needs to stop fooling themselves think about this if ANd That"s A big If McCain should steal his way in this election the world would be in even a bigger diaster with Palin in the White House she has already overused her power in Alaska so she would try the same thing in DC so please don't give her the chance to do so. That is why you now have a lot a Republicans backing away from McCain. Then I understand she said she would cut funding for special needs children just thinking of all the familys that would hurt. The Republicans would get rid of her but it is to late to do so, so they are stuck with her and her family trailing alone with her.

Mn Voter: It saddens me to know that people like you exist. Your hateful remarks about Michelle Obama's looks are a disgrace. How shallow. It is no wonder that the superficial McCain/Palin campaign appeals to you. But, I have faith that the majority of the voters in this great land are NOT like you. Soon, we will have a man of integrity in the White House, and even YOU will benefit from his leadership.

I live in MA. To Palin the Puppet – this is as "pro-America" a part of America as you can get. Come watch the proud celebrations of the American Revolution we have and maybe you will understand how offensive your comments are. But, actually, I think you are so narrow minded that you are better staying with your husband's "hate America" party and seceding from the rest of real America.

John McCain does make a good Comedian and is well suited to shows like SNL.

Sarah Palin does make a good sports broadcaster as she does read a teleprompter well and looks pretty good in front of a camera.

TO: Concerned in MA

Where exactly in the calculator does it say you would lose your job? Don't be ignorant! Your just repeating some propaganda your heard at a Palin rally.

BTW, what did the current government give you over the past eight years other then a BALLONING DEBT?

404 ERROR: FUNNY NOT FOUND

Maybe he will sing his new hit song, "Suppress the Vote."

Maybe McLiar can sing again on the show like his previous appearance: "Too much too little too late to ever try again..............................."

And Palin can join him in a duet: "CRAZY....I'm Crazy for feeling sooo blue......"

I hope SNL does a skit where McCain is going bananas over Joe the Plumber not being at the rally. That would be SNL gold.

Who the heck is Tito the builder? he's a really bad personality for the campaign.

To Mn voter
You are such a loser. Michelle Obama is a well educated, dignified and beautiful lady and she is a great mom too. Do you see the Obama kids being dragged around from rally to rally? They are in school where kids should be. Michelle has her priorities correct unlike sarah palin who parades her kids at the rallies. BTW doesn't Piper palin have school that she has to attend?

How can anyone with a lick of common sense vote for a candidate who has yet to talk about issues and how to resolve them. Unless I've missed something in this campaign John McCain has yet to show how he would do one thing different on economic and foreign policies than what the Bush administration has done for the past 8 years.

John McCain has a record of serving the country and knows the specifics of how to get things done while Obama hasn't even completed his first term in the senate and spent the majority of his term in the senate politicking for president. As fluent a speaker as Obama is, he has done nothing for this country except take liberal stances and pretend to be a moderate. John McCain should be our Commander and Chief.

McCain/Palin '08

If I was a republican, I would feel really bad about the level of education my supporters have. Do you ever hear these people speak? Hell, just read how they post. They should make commercials of these folk at these rallies. They would be excellent examples of why we need to fix our education system and why inbreeding is just not a good idea.

Fitting. McCain's campaign of late has been one big joke. No need to stop now.

To concede the race?

Maybe John will bring along his imaginary friends: Mack the Knife, Ivan the Terrible, Attila the Hun and other folksy people.

I stopped watching this sorry, desparete old man a long time ago. It is too bad that SNL needed to stooop to his level. BOYCOTT SNL !

This is such an exciting election, I can't wait to see the results on all issues in California. We can usher in a new era of intelligence with Barack Obama and Joe Biden. Don't waste your vote on the Independents. At one time, a vote for an Independent was a pipe dream, but now, it's just a waste. Make an actual decision on Obama vs McCain, that's not hard to do, and it will mean your vote will really means something. VOTE!

He needs the free publicity

why doesn't he pay for ads w/Cindy's fortunes?

Yeah, like the current economic situation

is REAL FUNNY

so on election eve, MAKE FUN OF IT ALL

Obama has said (saw it myself) that he will not fund MISSLE DEFENSE or ANY new Defense projects. Our military is the best because we have the best trained and best equipped forces. Not funding defense projects will not advance American power it will weaken us while China and Russia grow in strength. North Korea could hit the west coast with a Missile. Why would Obama weaken the military??????

Is he going to show with Joe The Plumber ?

Mn voter–you are a lowly human being.

Advocate50–couldn't agree more.

John McCain lost all his respect. Most of what comes out from his mouth is a Lie nowadays. I don't even want to get to his running mate.. she is nothing but a JOKE.
And we have this 3rd character : Joe the scum_bag.. wow...wake up my friends - do you think America needs this drama now?
Obama will be a World leader like Bill Clinton and that is what we need right now. Restore our image, respect, faith in the entire world. We need a President who would stand by the people, for the people and it is " That One " – Mr. Barack Obama.
He is not going to spread anyone's wealth (truely, all Mccain cares about is his wealth).. All he is saying is that he will remove the unnecessary tax breaks the " Failed One " – George Bush gave away to himself and his wealthy friends.
Like McCain says, give aways to the rich and making the rich richer, poor poorer – is a path to life in a 3rd world country.
So it is your choice. We have a wise, honest, well educated, disciplined, god loving, family man – Mr. Barack Obama. On the other hand, we have the worst, angry, lying, desperate, jealous – Mr. John McCain.
OBAMA (2008 -16)

Mc-Finished is Toast, he has ran one of the most unorganized campaigns in RNC history, I am glad we only have four more days to hear from this fool

Mn voter–I had the pleasure of meeting Michelle Obama. She is one of the most beautiful women I have ever seen. She is not only physically lovely, she has an astounding intelligence, warmth, and humor.

Putting aside the fact that she is genuinely beautiful, your hateful posting says worlds about you. You are not merely a superficial jerk, you are a cruel person.

Seen on another blog...

"I believe we are smart enough not to let that psychotic little troll and his village idiot robo-christian get anywhere near the the helm."

To signature Mn voter!!!
Where do you get all your hatred from? When I, as a European represented by more than 30 million coming from my country and now Americans, read anything like that, I have to mobilize all my psychological awareness to accept the fact that within the Republican Party, there are a lot of scared people. You need a statesman like Obama who could do a lot to change your reputation as a country on the whole, because it has been low for a looong time now! I am a great friend of the US of America, having been through 41 states during a long period of time with several friends in your beautiful country (but you are not selected by God to be the chosen people on Earth). You have to start communicating with Europe and other parts of the world, otherwise the risk is big that you will isolate yourself, which perhaps will suit radical and ignorant radical republicans! Obama will be the best that has happened to your country for a long time! Fathom him, support him and unify instead of splitting! You will crack from within!!! Go Democrats, use your positive energies!!!

McCain / Palin = Fascism and McCarthyism. (You are judged by the
company you keep, spy on your neighbors , you are unAmerican if you
don't do what we say, be afraid, be very afraid while we take you to the cleaners, etc.)

Democrats = Freedom and individual rights and liberty.
Free yourselves.

Democrats 08.

Our household has a new name for the mute button and we now call it the Palin button. I will probably have to use it when McCain is on SNl. I have never found much humor in an old washed up politician on SNL, just doesn't do much for me.He was a likeable guy but the gutter has really made everything he says and does just plain stinks.

Where are the Republicans who are not mean and fear mongers? I know you are out there. The Democrats may say some disjointed, unpleasant things and there are one or two crazies out there who may put up effigies of Mrs. Palin, but these types pale in comparison to those who write comments in columns representing the Republican point of view. How can one have such hatred as the person who wrote about Mrs. Obama? Civility is gone. What is nice about the Democratic Party, among other things, we may agree to disagree, but we don't have such blatent hatred as demonstrated by the other side.

to mn voter , what a terrible thing to say I do not ever remember anyone going that far you should have your mouth washed out with soap shame on you

"awwwwww come on guys, i wanna do it too!"

. . . This is a more befitting venue for McCain and Palin than the white house.

snl make me laugh

Every body knows that Palin is not quaified for the job she is seeking.
With the age of McCain he needs someone more qualified than him.
We cannot play with the future of our children so let us vote fot the wise man

Obama& Biden 08

I check my 401K on Saturdays. I'll let you know how much laughing I'll do.

The McCains can afford to lose half of their net worth and still have over 50 million dollars. McCain also had no problem using over 85 million dollars of tax payers' money to run a low-ball campaign against Barack Obama.

Obama/Biden '08 '12

Criteria for being President? There is none. Obama proved that.

A few days before the election .... this is how McCain chooses to spend his time? What priorities, and what a joke! The ONLY thing I want to see McCain on t.v. again for is his concession speech!

For those conservatives fighting or fearing change, I’ve news for you; the GOP brand is in shreds thanks to GWB and McCain. Currently the GOP brand is as worthless as the once popular “tickle me Elmo”. Obama has already replaced the so called “Reagan Democrats” that we’ve been talking about for the last 20+ years with a new brand that we’ll all talk about for many years to come called “Obama Republicans”. Nuff Said.

We know that any bit McCain is in will be better produced than that infomercial Obama starred in the other night. I purchased the Ginsu knives and the Miracle Mop at the end of his infomerical, what about you guys?

A very big thank you to Mr. Sanchez (CNN) for his show Thursday!
Priceless!!!
Bout time someone starts making the McCain campaign back up what they say (even though the guy never did respond).

MICHELLE OBAMA, THE MOST BEAUTIFUL (INSIDE & OUT) FIRST LADY THIS COUNTRY HAS / WILL EVER HAD.

Not that good a venue for McCain. He's relying on the stupid to vote for him, and SNL viewers aren't generally stupid enough to be impressed by him.

McCain can care less about Joe the Plumber, and I do think he was planted by the McCain clan.

Mn Voter, You ought to be ashamed of yourself for posting that kind of comment. it sadens me to see this filth and you regarding someone as too ugly to be first lady, and iran going to war with the united states. Being ugly in your book does not mean she is not fit to be the first lady I am going to neeed you to get yourfacts right before making such bogus remarks. Also, CNN should be ashamed for posting this remark..Jesus christ..CNN SHAMEFUL...I believe this so called moderator will not post this, but rather post the negative remarks about somone to keep people reading..

I can image they will bring Joe the Plumber in the show too. Is McCain trying to find job at SNL after the election?

Even when you Obamamaniacs think you are winning, you are mean and nasty spirited. I am only asking that when John McCain is winner on Nov. 5th that you not riot and tear up stuff in my neighborhood, please.

how could he beat his performance as a creepy husband on SNL? you tube mccain creepy husband SNL and be scared! it is halloween, after all.

John, John, John... bit too late for comedy, don't you think? You aren't going to win the election just by being (sort of) funny.

McCain was on SNL during the primary season ... I think that was 2007, not 2002

For you obama writers writing all the insults about MCCain and Palin here are some for you. Mrs. obama is to ugly to be first lady. Her mother had to tie a pork chop around her neck so the dog would play with her. If she traveled around the world she's so ugly she would scare the other leaders so bad they would run and hide. Iran would start a war with us just to get rid of her. She is just as weird as her husband.–mn voter
-------------------------------
Dear "mn" voter:

The “o” in Obama should be capitalized. When you say “to ugly” remember to put an additional “o”, the word is “too”. The “mn” in Minnesota should be capitalized. I’ll tell you what’s ugly, people with poor grammar.

Obama/Biden 08
Michelle Obama has excellent grammar and will be a wonderful First Lady.

Oh yeah! I'm so totally NOT watching SNL. Like I haven't already seen enough of his old wrinkled hide. =P

It just goes to show you, "It ain't over till the old guy sings!" Maybe he'll do the Sarah Palin rap. BTW, we haven't heard anything comparable from Obama and Biden. Have they no talent? All work and no play makes Barack a dull boy...

Note to everyone else on here– LIGHTEN UP!!!! It's an article about SNL for cryin' out loud!! There'll be plenty of other chances to rant and rave (and I'm sure you'll take them all...)

MN voter: Is that really supposed to mean something? Americans, whether for McCain or Obama are tired of silliness. This is serious business and we are ready to take action! Vote Nov 4th!

“If Democrats win full control of government, they will want to give civil rights to terrorists and talk unconditionally to dictators and state sponsors of terror. "

This is what McCain's robocalls are saying to voters. That ain't funny, my friends. That goes beyond lying and becomes a plain character smear. Are we going to read tomorrow that McCain's robocalls are questioning the virginity of Obama's daughters and accusing Biden of pedaphilia.

No Republican can be proud of this nominee.

All the comments in this blog prove that you liberal hippie nutjobs are getting nervous about McCain's chances....I love it!!

Go McCain!!

Mn voter, WOW so profound!!

People be part of this history making event, go out and vote! Don't let the ignorance, slander and mudslinging of the republican party rule this country anymore. It is not Reagan's party anymore.

The sad ridiculous rein of wanna be king George is over. We do not need another short angry old man with more throne thrall than we have had for the last eight years.

We need an American. We need Barack Obama!

How pathetic a once great man turns to comedy for notoriety. Instead of focusing on issues and trying to win this election McCain thinks it more important to do a comedy show. The real comedy of this election was Palin as his vp pick. Perhaps McCain doesn't get it that he is the butt of the joke. Obama may not have the experience but he has shown calm leadership qualities and I;m sure will fill his cabinet with the most qualified people he can find. I wish john McCain and Sarah Palin the best of luck in whatever they go on to after this election But my vote will go to Obama/Biden. They seem far more focused on issues and the American people. Regardless of whichever candidate you endorse I urge everyone to get out and vote in this most important election.

If I remember correctly this will be his third appearance. One of which he hosted.

Guess that celebrity talk was all BS.

PATHETIC OLD MAN GRASPING FOR STRAWS. GO OBAMA

If McCain is elected we’ll have four more years of the same policies as Bush. We can't afford it.

Obama& McCain

The greatest trick the Devil ever pulled was convincing the world he didn't exist.

We, the majority, have not been fooled.

On November 4th, America will rise up and prove that money cannot buy the office of POTUS.

On November 4th, America will strike back at the Liberal media who have been outed by the Center for Journalistic Excellence for their biased coverage of Obama and attacks on Palin.

On November 4th, the wailing of the Parasites, the Socialists, The Democrats will be music to my ears........goodbye gubment cheese.........................goodbye handouts..........goodbye Marxists

McCain/Palin 2008

Look at it this way. If YObama wins SNL and other shows like the Daily Show wont have anyone to poke fun at for 4 years. shows like these should be thanking Bush for GREAT material for the past 8 years.

I did do the math Concerned in MA @ 9:21am...

What $35 cheese pizzas are you eating?

Just read that Obama and his campaign are now planning on lowering expectations to give to the people of what he plans do if he wins next week.

Not in office yet and he's already CHANGING his mind.

Note to the Obama-sheep.

When your man loses next Tuesday/Wednesday.

Do not say the race was stolen. It never was in 2000, 04 and or now.

You need to understand that the Demorats nominate candidates from the very very far left.....Gore, Kerry and Obama.

Americans are not stupid, these 3 all lost for the same reason.

AMERICANS DON'T WANT BLEEDING HEART LIBERALS RUNNING THE COUNTRY! THE SILENT MAJORITY WILL TAKE DOWN OBAMA AND HIS "CHANGE IN THE NAME OF SOCIALISM"

With surprise guest (BOSE-OF-US) singing their hit "McCain/Palin Tradition" also playing game of "FOLLOW OUR LEADERS" behind the PIED-PIPER! with Joe,Tito and other IDIOTS!! on their way to Sarah's Place.

When I hear such phrases as:

"Ba-rock The Vote"
"My Main Man Barack"
"My Bro-Man Barack"
"You Go Barack...You Be Da Man"
"Bro's Before Ho's

Well, this simply reminds me of the I.Q. of the average Obama supporter, plus the fact that this election is about race (in regards to Obama.)

Soooo Ghetto!!!!!

It's very sad to see that in the most important election in my lifetime, the vice-presidential and now presidential candidate appearing on SNL. With the mounting crises that are not only impacting America but also the international community, we need a leader; we need CHANGE! I don't see how the McCain campaign can justify sending Palin onto SNL when she can't even hold a reasonable interview.

Obama&Biden 2008

Say it with me......pandering

John is dividing this country not unifying. This redistribution of wealth issue is huge. It has no merit and John McCain should be ashamed of his self and his "dog from hell" Sarah Palin should be sent back to her kennel. To even make this statement at a time when folks are loosing their homes, committing suicide because they have lost 60% of the retirement and savings, not the mention the growing number of homeless (w childern) on the street. Is disturbing. If the Govt can help the banks (cough cough) SOCIALISM. Its dam n well time to start helping the American People with the wealth they have given their govt since they able to work. People who need, are people who pay taxes, people who need help just lost their jobs, due to upper crust greed. This sick selfish attitude that is going around is just disgraceful and very UNAMERICAN. Good Help us all.

The only thing the McCain campaign is good for anymore is a joke.

I do think this will be funny, McCain's sense of humor has always been one of the reasons I like him more than other Republicans. Lately that humor has been missing, and I look forward to the return of a more light-hearted, witty, likable McCain.

To MN voter....

You and your little kid insults just shows the stupidity of your brains. You just hating cause you know who's gonna win this election! stop talking crap and get back to school my child

My comment is being moderated

When briefed by SNL producers as to what his skit will contain, McCain said "Oh, I don't really care as long as I get to see that Chevey Chase guy- He's a riot!"

Too little, too late Gramps.

get out an vote–the polls aren't tightening–thats another Mc cain lie–they also aren't counting cell phone users –so the polls are bs anyway. but the media want you to think it means something–their out of touch

SNL seems to have gone from comedy to just plain stupidy. Is it me or is this some kind of researched approach for appealing to the progressively dumbed down younger generations??

MCCAIN is already a joke, he need not go on SNL to be a FOOL! He has constantly been JACKED on national TV and all over the world with 1st the VP pick, then his FAKE suspended campaign, then the fundamentals of the ECONOMY IS GOOD AND NOW JOE THE PLUMBER. WHAT'S NEXT, will he pull his pants down and show his Butt because he's done it in many other ways

Obama supporters are terrified that McCain will win. They talk so much, but don't understand the McCain supporters do less talking and more action. The surprise will come Tues. Like Obama supporters there's a lot of new registrations to vote for McCain. My household is an example. Just like their starved for Obama, others don't want anything to do with him. His promises are just promises...

*yawn*

Mn voter,
decision are not taken with beauty, but intelligence. What good does it do to Palin? She is the laugh of the whole world for how stupid and incoherent she is

this election is so important...we just can not afford John McCain, his army of lobbyist, his poor pick of VP, his Rove politics, his lies or his incompetence. John McCain had a three month head start on Obama, why is he soooo behind? because America is smarter now than we were in 2000

MN Voter writes

"Mrs. obama is to ugly to be first lady. Her mother had to tie a pork chop around her neck so the dog would play with her."

Behold the new GOP as illustrated by MN Voter's remark. This is the newest member of what I referred to earlier as the Libaugh Party.

Take a bow MN. You won the prize for "best in show" representing the new "values" voters.

As Gahndi says:

"I like your Christ
I don't like your Christians
Your Christians are nothing like your Christ"

calm down mark, everyone who follows this blog knows your a mccain guy.

republicans should not try satire and deception, it doesn't work for you. it leads to carving B's in your face backwards ina mirror.

Was really hoping to see Obama on SNL or even Joe Biden who hasn't been on yet. All the same, it'll be fun to watch McCain as he was very funny when he visited snl earlier this year. Even though Palin is a stupid choice, I wish him well.

I still plan to vote for Obama. He has a steady hand that has earned my respect and the respect of the world. He will be a wise leader that finally! will bring generations x, y and z (remember us?) into active involvement.

Obama is a modern president for a modern world. I cannot wait to vote!

To "Concerned in MA" Since $1800 is such an insignificant sum to you perhaps next year you should tell your employer that instead of giving you a raise next year he should take that money and plow it back into his company so it can create additional jobs since you'd simply waste it on cheese pizzas.

well you people should remember how Mr. bush gaffe and the stupid words uttered by him made him very famous, actually it workded for his advantage, remember, No wonder the republican would like to bring Joe the MAMA or Boe the drama because they think it is the same stupid crowd they are catering for, that's how they see you people, stupid stupid bozzzzzzzzzzzzzoooooooooooo

Hopefully this will be the forum in which the old geezer can do his swan song.

OBAMA/BIDEN ALL THE WAY!!

Four more days and we can finally start to put the Republican Nightmare behind us and move into the future!

GOBAMA!

Well, if his SNL appearance actually swings some voters his way that says a lot about the mentality of those voters. Vote for the funny guy? That makes a lot of sense..not!

Mn voter October 31st, 2008 9:28 am ET

I have 2 words for you SORE LOSER.

OBAMA/BIDEN 2008/2012

Great to see John McCain reaching across the aisle! This is what is so great about this man! He cares! He is a real American!

It is fitting that he will spend the last Sat. of the campaign on SNL. His entire campaign has been one big joke and maybe he can make us laugh for a little while to forget the mess he and is party has given us.

If standidng up to your party is the criteria for President, then Ron Paul should be king of the world...........

Sad state of affairs for SNL. It used to be a place for satire of political figures, – where even the then-President Gerald Ford would make an appearance and STILL be made fun of to the point everyone thought it made him look ridiculous.

Now it's a place for polticians to advertise their "fun-loving, I can take a joke, so I'm better than my opponent" abilities, with writers afraid that if they say anything bad about someone they'll end up not working in the business.

Then again, SNL has been afraid of celebrities for years now, so it's no wonder they're willing to be let the Republicans run rampant on the show. After spending so much time praising Hillary and trying to make Obama look bad, it's not surprising.

To Mn voter: Your response is typical of Republican tactics. Ignore the issues and resort to personal attacks.

well he is a joke.

to the minnesota voter, that was just rude to write that about mrs. obama, at least she isn't a pill popping, husband stealing, lying character like Mccain's wife. Oh wait, but that is the values of the republican party isnt it.

I hope he is going on there to give his farewell speak. It would be an appropriate way and place to do it. he and his pitbull in lipstick (her words) have run a smear campaign full of lies. but it seems to be the republican way. they are fear and war mongers.

OBAMA/BIDEN 2008/2012

Introducing( drum roll) the three pumpkin heads for halloween SarahPalin, John McCain and Cindy McShame McCain. Happy halloween to all of the Witches. Go away and never come back na ya hear, He Haw!!

Win Obama Win 08........................................................................

why hasn't SNL had Biden or Obama on recently. I know we have all enjoyed the Palin-Fey stuff, but whatever ever happened to equal air time (that is free airtime-McCain can't afford it unless its free).

I won't be watching SNL anymore.

Oops...I meant mn voter....ur cool linda..sorry..

McCain still has not uttered a word of intelleigent speak on what his plan is for the economy. "Cut taxes and hope for the best" just doesn't work. It may have worked if we weren't in such huge debt but we are. If by chance the wall street welfare program works what will have happened to medicare and social security by then.

McCain has zero plan but he is good at lies and promoting false negative attacks. Age wasn't a factor in my decision for this election but when he picked a pom pom girl for VP now age is a factor. McCain is simply a bad cjhoice no matter how you look at it with intelligent eyes. I am glad to see that the eductaed of Arizona have seen enough.

Go Obama

I hope he does his "Stand up and fight" speech and flails his arms because that is epic funny!!!

I have voted already! Have you?!? If not do it today!!

"That one" and Joe The Biden in 2008!!

worried about getting left behind in coverage aren't you John?

Obama puts out a 30 minute ad on major networks. You get Larry King. Obama gets a spot on the Daily Show. You get a bit role on SNL.

Maybe you should spend more time in your own home state since you are slipping in the polls there Johnny.

Much has been made of what the world will do after the election to test the new president. The world is watching now. Barack has shown himself to be steady, calm, decisive, and willing to listen to other people's ideas. John McCain has shown quite the opposite. The world is depending on American's to elect a world leader. Not a petty, selfish, angry, divisive man; whose campaign has focused on turning American against American.

McCane on SNL = Send in the Clowns...as if palin' around with Sarah and Joe, the not-so-plumber isn't enough.

These people are obviously desperate! Palin's appearance on CNN this morning, with her pregnant daughter holding her Down's syndrome baby brother dressed in a Dumbo suit is just one more example of how much they don't get it. And why aren't those kids in school anyway? I doubt they're getting any smarter following her around the country.

Will he revisit the role of the "stalker" as he did years back?

I will certainly tune into see this Must See event. Either way, the die is cast and McPalin characters without real character will go into the dust bin with the rest of the sleazos who thought that they could lead a nation with the support of the fringe only.

And they will not have learned anything. The new GOP will either rebuild so that some of us might come back, or be reduced to the "limbaugh" party (Limbaugh et all call moderates and indie voters the "liberals in waiting) in which case they can angrily feel marginalized by the left when it was THEM who marginalized themselves, putting their narrow interests above the interests of the majority of Americans.

To Mn Voter,
Are you a 2nd grader? You sound so childish, only a very immature child would call another person ugly or say something about a person mother. Grown ups does not talk this way.

Mn voter October 31st, 2008 9:28 am ET

For you obama writers writing all the insults about MCCain and Palin here are some for you. Mrs. obama is to ugly to be first lady. Her mother had to tie a pork chop around her neck so the dog would play with her. If she traveled around the world she's so ugly she would scare the other leaders so bad they would run and hide. Iran would start a war with us just to get rid of her. She is just as weird as her husband.
----------------------
Ha ha, funny...NOT!

What the heck does that have to do with anything? Mrs. Obama isn't entering a beauty contest...and by the way she still wins because beauty isn't just a pretty face and body. Those contests also judge intelligence and brains. Gov. Palin can't even answer a question. And she isn't running against Gov. Palin anyway. The fact that you're even comparing her to either McCain or Palin on looks is very telling about what you think about your candidates on their real qualifications. How idiotic are you? Unbelievable. If you want to vote for McCain and Palin for more dumb reasons like this, have at it.

And by the way, she would make a better President than McCain and Palin combined, just like her husband. Unbelievable.

Someone should clue McCain in that he doesn't make the jokes - he is the joke.

To all of you McCain bashers, you are disrespectful morons. Obama has you drinking his koolaid, and since most of you are probably unemployed, uneducated drunks, you are enjoying it.

Here is an idea. Get a life, get a job, and stop depending on the government to save you from every stupid mistake you've made.

I'm just glad that on Nov. 4, half of you supporting Obama will have too bad of a hangover or will be too lazy to vote.

Lol! @ linda...u guys sure are mad that obama is about to be our next president. Its ok though. When snl makes a fool out of mccain like they did palin maybe we will get to see that grouchy old man temper. Or maybe he'll raise the roof to a rap song about his lightweight rogue vp. I'll watch just in case. I need one more laugh at the incompetence of the mccain campaign.lol!

SNL is as desperate for viewers as McCain is for votes...

What's even more insulting Steve is that SNL continues to show and seemingly push McCain and Palin. I will no longer watch that program. If enough people boycotted them they would know it was wrong to even "LOOK" as if they were taking sides. Yes it's enjoyable to watch them ake fun of candidates but to have them on the show and brought to light so much is sickening. BOYCOTT SNL AND SEND THEM YOUR EMAILS LETTING THEM KNOW YOU ARE NOT HAPPY!

People C'mon..... This is not American Idol. There is NO COMPARISON between the candidates.
One campaign relies on Lies, Gimmicks & Politics of FEAR & Division..
The other campaign speaks of Forward Moving Ideas, Innovation, Unity , and Policies that benefit Everyone.
You have had 8 years to to think about your choice.... Don't be FOOLISH AGAIN!!!!!
Imagine what this country would be like with 4 MORE YEARS of Job Loss, Foreclosure, War, High Crime Rates, Poor Foreign Relations.

THE CHOICE IS CLEAR.....................................................

Barack your Vote08!!!

Mr McCain seems so desperate in his desire to be president,that he has shifted his position more since 2000 than a greased pig. He lies, abandons a wife of 15yrs, after she is no longer the swimsuit model due to a horrify auto crash, and in 1 month marry a rich heiress, hook up with Keating, mad at Bush after 2000, best friends with Bush 90% of the time, now he don't know Bush in 2008. Opportunist and self interest is what comes to mind when i view his voting record on policy. loves corporations, hates education, healthcare,loves war and pretty women 28 yrs his junior watch out Cindythe maverick might be shifting again!

I hope they make as big of a fool out of him as they did with Sarah.

This should be good. McCain will be well into his sundowning by then.

I won't be watching, I'll be sending cash to moveon.org instead

cry for me republicans...your tears sustain me!

I love how there are next to no comments from those who are Pro-McCain because of the libral media. I feel like we're in Russia with the media censoring those who are not voting the way they want us to and Obama is going to bring Communism with his Marxism ideas. He should NOT play Robin Hood, guess I'll not work except flipping burgers so I can collect money from you hard-working rich folks.

To the Mn voter, have you looked in the mirror? At least Michelle Obama does not have to have a fake tan, fake boos and plastic surgery to look good. I bet your wife is just like Sarah Palin ALL FAKE!!

Concerned in MA October 31st, 2008 9:21 am ET

My vote is NOT FOR SALE – AT ANY PRICE.

But if yours is, here's some FACTS to all who love the Obama Tax Plan.

I went to his website and used the "savings calculator". Some quick numbers for you…

My wife and I combined make about 100K. We no longer have dependents, and we have a mortgage. Popped those numbers into his calculator – I save $1800.

So let's see… averaged out, me and my wife each get a raise of 42 cents an hour.

YIPPEEEEEEEEE!!!!!

So if my vote was for sale… which IT IS NOT… we'd get an extra Domino's pizza (no toppings) every week!

Do the math people. What would you rather have – a cheese pizza or your job?
------------------------------–
Did you check to see how much you'd receive under McCain?????? I bet you didn't. You'd receive nothing because the tax cuts would go to the top 1%. Stop posting garbage.

Concerned in MA:

Your argument is not only incoherent but it is also gramattically incorrect.

To Mn voter:

Your rant is ignorant and foolish. I could use a few more choice words to describe the childish tone of your post but CNN probably wouldn't include this post if I did. What an idiot.

McCain is a buffoon, and if he had spent more time picking a legitimate VP than he does making the rounds on TV, maybe he'd be ahead.

Sarah is a moron who needs to go back to school to learn English. Her syntax is awful, and I hate to hear her speak.

Please God send her back to Alaska now. I can't vote fast enough to send her back to the woods because listening to her makes my brain twitch.

It is funny to read the blogs – thankfully the liberal media has been fair and open regarding supporting the canidates. I would like to know why Obama issues don't become important , included comments made by Bindin about Obama going to be tested on a global front but clothes of VP choice of McCain become the primary discussion point. Thank you liberal media for reporting the real issues....

POST THIS COMMENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

McCain supporters go to OHIO today and vote multiple times….they are letting us use park benches as home addresses if we are "homeless"…go up there and vote 20-30 times…you have to do it if you love McCain

Saturday Night Live is really flogging a dead horse now. There's nothing funny about John McCain. What's he trying to do - go after the "youth vote" at the eleventh hour?

whoa!!!...are you that bitter MN VOTER?...hahaha...you need to take a chill pill...ok, you are gonna vote for Sen. McCain caus his wife is a hottie, huh!!!...well, one thing you should know...it won't get you any closer to her than you are now...hahaha...but i didn't know being a hottie was a requirement to be president...wowww...and i thought Pres. Bush and Gov. Palin were ignorant...silly me...you win the crown, MN VOTER...enjoy your wonderful life...God Bless the US Armed Forces and the United States of America.

Obama/Biden 08

Kina.

Imagine if Obama and Biden were invited to be on SNL 20 times in 5 weeks...... The RNC would have a fit calling the liberal media bias completely out of control. Yet, in a time of crisis and economic failures, all the McCain/Palin camp can do is laugh at themselves.

More the reason why I switched from Republican to Indy this year and yet another example of why I will be voting Democrate for the first time in a presidential election.

Matt from NY
Former Repub
Former Guliani Supporter
Former McCain Supporter (2000 version)

Too bad that after all that has been spent by McCain and Obama, the only candidate to candidly discuss his ACTUAL PLAN is Bob Barr, the Libertarian party candidate.

McBama is an empty vessel. The Republicans and Democrats are trying to woo us through "hope and change" and "fear and divisiveness" rather than through facts, plans and strategy.

There is a real choice for a better direction on Nov 4: Bob Barr. He is against the war, against raising taxes. He will shrink government and stop pumping up our debt. He is the ONLY CANDIDATE who will lower taxes (see the National Taxpayer Union). McBama will raise taxes, albeit one more slowly than the other.

BARR '08

I pray this is the last time we have to see McBush's lying mudslinging face!! Get out and Barack the Vote America!!

Obama/Biden '08

Today, I see the typical Obama supporter is posting earlier than usual.

Yes, the Obama supporters are here with their poor spelling, syntax and sentence structure.

Anothet way to sniff out an Obama supporter is to read their one line comedic zingers.

Obama supporters have no depth or insight, ALL tunnel vision!

Do you people have Jobs?

Yes I do, however I'm in the lounge with my co-workers, we are laughing at Obama and his arrogant infomercial, yes we still find it to be a ploy, a joke, a last ditch efford to plant his feet in the lead.

Like Reagan, McCain will wrap this election up over the course of the next few days; Obama knows this, or why else spend that kind of $$ if you knew that you had this election in the bag.

Obama & Michelle, go back to Chicago!!

good. we need one more laugh, before we send him into retirement.

@ Concerned in MA

So whose tax plan do you and your wife benefit more from?

Does anyone know when Chris Matthews from MSNBC actually made out?
I'm glad to see by listening to Matthews that its really love and not just a fling. I was worried the guy was cheap.

SNL PUTS DAGGER IN McCAIN!!!

That will be the mantra by the GOP after Obama beats McCain on November 4. They're lining up the excuses now!

First, Bush got him due to his successful administration's antics, then Caribou Barbie piled on the misery and now SNL!!!

When it's all done, then maybe McCain can explain how he qualified for flight school given his shoddy record at the Academy?!

McCain will need another career soon. Maybe it's showbiz as a comedian or jokster. Following the footsteps of Huckster. Palin has already made herself look silly on the show. Just remember, Palin said God's will, will be done on election day. So McCain and Palin need to look to other means of employment since they will be blown out of this election, by God;s will.

My wife and I combined make about 100K. We no longer have dependents, and we have a mortgage. Popped those numbers into his calculator – I save $1800.

So let's see… averaged out, me and my wife each get a raise of 42 cents an hour.

YIPPEEEEEEEEE!!!!!

So if my vote was for sale… which IT IS NOT… we'd get an extra Domino's pizza (no toppings) every week!

Do the math people. What would you rather have – a cheese pizza or your job?
-------------------------------

Wow really? We're suppose to have sympathy for you because you both make 6 figures?? Go cry me a river.

POST THIS COMMENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

obama supporters go to OHIO today and vote multiple times….they are letting us use park benches as home addresses if we are "homeless"…go up there and vote 20-30 times…you have to do it if you love obama"

You are pathetic!

I wonder if SNL will stand McBush up, just like Joe the Fake Plumber did yesterday!! Get out and Barack the Vote America!!

Obama/Biden '08

We need overwhelming Democratic ticket victories at all levels to send a unified message to all America (and the Republicans in particular) that bombastic messages of hate, distortions and lies will no longer be accepted in political campaigns.
Maybe, then in future, we can have (all) contestants from all parties focusing upon substantive issues that affect our lives.
IF WE VOTE LOUD ENOUGH, MAYBE WE WILL BE HEARD.THE BEST WAY TO SHUT DOWN THE GOP TACTICS IS TO MAKE SURE YOU AND EVERYONE YOU KNOW VOTES 100% DEMOCRATIC. GET OUT THE VOTE; TAKE NOTHING FOR GRANTED; IRRESPECTIVE OF THE POLLS.

It's possible he could lose his home state, though pretty unlikely. Though it'll probably not be an overwhelming victory for him AZ though.

No Watching...not Interested....

BTW, the reason we had tunned to watch the VP debate was to see Sarah making a fool out of herself- DUMB NUT!. Her answers were memorized, it is amazing, I think I can do a better job running as a VP....

Does he not have anything better to do? It seems like these appearances and spoofs on themselves is not productive for the campaign.

whaa whaa whaa! My friend's (Cons) Stop the whining and crying. Don't blame us Dems, that your candidate is a loser and out of touch and your VP is a bigger moron than GWB. have her trot out her retart baby at the next campaign stop, I am sure it's worth one or two additional votes from you compasionate conservatives.

When a campaign needs to resort to the likes of Joe the plumber, ad nauseum, and where SNL might garner more votes than attendees at a rally, McCain has really hit the skids. Sad. But, what do you expect when he has caved in to the right wing whackos? Heaven help us if he wins the presidency.

He last appeared on the show during this election.

@MN VOTER...does it hurt to be that dumb??? Do you draw a disability check for it?

So, concerned in MA, did you also do the calculator for what you would pay under McCain's plan? And if you do, don't forget to add in the health insurance your employer pays to your income before you figure in your tax increase!

I am pretty sure SNL is part of the "liberal mainstream media." Whatever. McCain is doing what he's done best for the last few months...being the butt of jokes. And sometimes, just a "butt" in general. Go home!

To concerned in MA you are lying................I went to the web page and I put in our income and we saved 1,000 and we make $150.000.......What are you saving on MCains web site............I can tell you save your time going............Nothing is there........................

McCain has told so many lies-I'll never delay the world series(neither did Obama -the game was always supposed to start at 8:30 ) to Joe the "Plummer" to Sarah is "ready" I hope one of the skits has to do with the lies he has told. I have Never seen a presidential candidate tell such obvious lies that could be checked in a flash and tell them over,and over,and over,and over,and over. Do you think he's senile??

Well now lol.....it's simply amazing that we have a Presidential candidate and a VP candidate who have made a total mess of this election year.....first badmouthing to get somewhere.....mudslinging to prove points that just aren't there lol.....bogus plumbers who don't show up at rallies when they were supposed to lol.....our Republican Presidential candidate that stares at his running mate's bum during the RNC...the running mate, winking at debate audiences, asking Senator Biden if she can call him by his first name lol...that one killed me right there....now they are headlining Saturday Night Live lol......I suppose it's a good way to make a few dollars for their campaign lol.......these things just prove to me how very disrespectful they can be to our Country....especially during an election year.....it's sad just how juvenile their actions have been.....but Senator Obama has stood strong....no matter what those two have thrown at him.....which also proves alot to me.....he can take the heat......he doesn't back down.......neither does Senator Biden......so McCain and Palin can claim to be 'mavericks' all they want......most of us know who the real lead men are....and they most certainly do not need to come up with nicknames like 'maverick' to prove themselves.......Obama/Biden 2008............Sherry from Missouri

I couldn't watch Palin when she was on as her voice hurts my ears. Now I will have to miss another show cuz McCain upsets my stomach! These people are a joke (not the SNL cast, they are the BEST!)

Go Obama/Biden!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mn voter October 31st, 2008 9:28 am ET

For you obama writers writing all the insults about MCCain and Palin here are some for you. Mrs. obama is to ugly to be first lady. Her mother had to tie a pork chop around her neck so the dog would play with her. If she traveled around the world she's so ugly she would scare the other leaders so bad they would run and hide. Iran would start a war with us just to get rid of her. She is just as weird as her husband.
-------------------------------

And you are uglier than sin.

It would be 100% better if they had Mike Meyers playing McCain on SNL instead.

They'll probably make fun of him to his face just like they did to Sarah Palin two weeks ago – can't wait!

GET OUT AND VOTE!
Obama/Biden '08

Well SNL made Palin into the cartoon character that she is...I guess McCain and the RNC thought that was a good thing !?!

Maybe he can see some foreign land from his window also?
This is a complete joke!

To Concerned in Ma: $18oo savings sound like a nice piece of change. Did you run your numbers thur Mcsenile's Calculator's? What did you come up with? I thought so. NOTHING!

You state your vote is not for sale but you are doing an awful lot of figuring. Is your soul for sale? Because our troops are being put in harm's way dying for your right to live and you apparently agree with mcwar that clueless Palin will be good for our country. Not very smart.

Mark,

What are you talking about? One person – one vote. Period! I know you are being facetious (look it up if you don't know what that means), but Democrats actually believe in the sanctity of the democratic and voting process.

This couldn't come at a worser time for SNL, they're probably not looking foward to their ratings taking a nose dive.

Maybe they will release Palin's medical records on SNL?

PALIN PROMISED TO RELEASE HER MEDICAL RECORDS, WHERE ARE THEY?

The campaign said early this week, they lied.

Would Saturday Night Live consider a skit with McCain as McBeth.
There is a great part for Cindy, also.

Hey Mark !
I sleep on a park bench because Bush put me there and your sarcasm just doesn't work. NOT THIS TIME

Mark, we as Obama supporters as well as Obama himself only want the election if we win. It is not necessary to cheat when your candidate is talking about things the american people cares about.

See republicans need to cheat this year because they have an old candidate that only expects people to vote for him because of racism and their desire to see a woman, qualified or not on the ticket. He expects to scare people into voting for him rather than voting out of their hearts for the best candidate for the job.

Obama/Biden 08

Mn voter,

You are an IDIOT!!!!

Who cares....unless Willaim Ayres is also a guest.
I'm sure the right wing consertives just love that their 2 candidates are on one of the most vile shows on tv.
Anyway, I've already lost all respect for McCain and don't care what he does anymore.

McCain/Palin 2008

To concerned in MA, did you compare John McCain and Obama plan to see what the different would be?

My Friend, Just so you know for sure, we'll be laughing AT you instead of WITH you...

You lost me when you picked her to pander to the the lowest common denominator of the party.

The "Religious Right" is NEITHER.

GOP= GREED OVER PRINCIPLE

Obama/Biden 08/12 GET OUT AND VOTE PEOPLE!

Remind me NOT to watch SNL this weekend!

And the clowns continue to march. These two are the most maverickiest mavericks of mavericks that have ever been mavericks in a mavericky sort of way.

Oh...they're just going to continue to push Bush's policies?

Nothing new here.

Guess we better get ready to hear Chevy Chase crying again. What a shame, he used to be funny and a pretty good actor. Now it looks like he's become a sad, bitter, old man.

Meanwhile Obama will be encouraging his ACORN buddies to pick up the homeless and register the dead. I mean hey, this election isn't gonna steal itself you know.

The remote possibility of F A I L I N- McBush in the White House is definitely NO LAUGHING MATTER

Do I CARE!!!!! I guess he can't aford to buy the air time so he's got to try and get funny.....his entire campain has been one laugh after another. Get out and vote...if you can, vote early.

Concerned in MA,

What do you get under McCains plan? I'll tell you . ZERO. He'll give your company a tax break and ship your jos overseas. I bet that 1800.00 looks good now don't it.

I am listening to missy online.

I have made this offer before, but with 4 days left, I will offer again since she is making my eardrums bleed.

I would like to offer that you run a telethon, I will promise that you can lock me in a "cone of silence" and run "Head On" commercials 24 hours a day, until folks donate enough coins so that you can only use closed captioning anytime the half-wit opens her pie hole.

Deal?

CNN is showing Palin spewing her lies right now. So pathetic.
She just said the Maverick took on " abuse of Power".
Oh yeah, took her on to be his VP candidate.
Same old speech, different $150000.00 costume.

Does "concerned in MA" inferr that voting for McCain is a way of
insuring that one has a job. Pretty irrational reasoning for a
sane person.

Lawrence, I think you're the one who needs an education. You misspelled quite a few words there, buddy. Try taking off the Caps Lock, too. It should be on the left side of your keyboard.

Wow...the Repubs are getting nastier and nastier as the days tick by. Mark is simply "out of touch" like his candidate. "Concerned in MA" is griping because he will get $1800 back. My wife and I are teachers with two teenagers...we'd LOVE to have $1800 rather than give it to rich corporate CEO's. All you Repubs had nothing to say in 2000 when W. stole the election from Gore...but MAN are you scared you might actually LOSE this year and EVERYONE is watching to make sure you don't cheat again!

This white, Christian, male, registered Republican, voted for "THAT ONE" early last week in FLORIDA.

I love it. More hypocrisy. Blathering about how Obama hangs with hollywood types and lambasting him for having a scheduled SNL appearance, which he ended up cancelling, then both Palin and McCain actually go on the show. Be gone ye vile ghouls.

All McCain has to do is use his lines when introducing "Joe the Plumber" on the stump "great american, hero, etc...", that should get him a lot of laughs.

McCain has become a joke. I never thought of him much as a war hero, since he chose to disregard military protocol and got caught. I think his 30 years in the Senate with really nothing to show for it speaks for itself.

So, yes, go on SNL Senator, make it memorable.

Mark,

Did you see dead people in florida voting for republican, go and check. repubs are famous in stealing elections by cheating, when we press Obama on the machine count it as McCain.

McCain can't win at all . Yes he brought along a very attractive woman, but you can't win by looks alone. The American people are smarter. You can no longer fool them using the republican fear tactic or Joe the fake plumber. They are literally hungry and angry. Try honesty and one thing you will do concrete to make it better people who are hurting.

Didn't SNL start out trying to be an outlet for what was "in" with its targeted demo of young people? This choice is the equivalent of starting out in 1975 not with George Carlin and Richard Pryor but with Rich Little and Jerry Lewis.

SNL is not a news organization and seem to be thinking a little too highly of its own role by playing "fair and balanced". Can't recall them finding it necessary to let Ford come on and disprove Chase's riff or have Bush counter Will Ferrell.

Your job is to poke fun at the establishment, not be a part of it.

Concerned in MA, I wonder who lost the 42 cents an hour so you could have it? Obama's plan being socialistic and all. If you benefited from the "spread," where did it come from? Cindy's piggy bank?

The American Public want PALIN and MCCAIN to TELL US what YOUR PLAN IS.

STOP talking/bashing Obama and TELL US YOUR PLAN......

Oh, that's right THEY DON'T HAVE ONE.

Vote for PEACE

NOT HATE.

The SNL crew will sing "hit the road jack and don't come back no more no more." to Mccain

Well, I will try again CNN censors.....

Your last article claimed Obama can win Arizona........you are correct
He will take Texas too.......this kool-aid is powerful stuff...wow
I'm hallucinating....I see Obama winning Alabama,Mississippi and
Utah....

CNN....try to reclaim what's left of your credibility and stop drinking the kool-aid!!!

Hey, Concerned in MA...now do the calculations with McCain's tax plan..

Yay! Not long now until we all walk hand-in-hand to our new training wage jobs.

Maybe hhe can take that time to explain his relationship with Rashid Khalidi to the public. Let the public know exactly how many hundreds of thousands of dollars he donated to the PLO...

Well if Obama does win, having our first true marxist as president ought to make for an interesting four years.

Obama is definitely the favorite presidental candidate amongst the American people that the McCain campaign is using him in their ads. CNN, your guy will lose no matter how hard you tried to make Obama look bad, he will be victorius. Go OBAMA - POTUS.

Come on over Mr. McCain and sing the Democartic national fighting song. We need your in the last four days. Way to Go sir.

Well if Obama does win, having aour first true marxist as president ought to make for an interesting four years.

will mcwinky take gov blinky with him. mccain is done!

After Law school, he went back to Chicago . Rezko offered him a job, which he turned down. But, he
did take a job with Davis, Miner, Barnhill & Galland. Guess what? They represented 'Rezar' which
is Rezko's firm. Rezko was one of Obama's first major financial contributors when he ran for office
in Chicago . In 2003, Rezko threw an early fundraiser for Obama which Chicago Tribune reporter
David Mendelland claims was instrumental in providing Obama with 'seed money' for his U.S. Senate
race. In 2005, Obama purchased a new home in the Kenwoood District of Chicago for $1.65 million
(less than asking price).
With ALL those Student Loans – Where did he get the money for the property? On the same day;
Rezko's wife, Rita, purchased the adjoining empty lot for full price. The London Times reported that
Nadhmi Auchi, an Iraqi-born Billionaire loaned Rezko $3.5 million three weeks before Obama's new
home was purchased. Obama met Nadhmi Auchi many times with Rezko.

Now, we have Obama running for President. Valerie Jarrett, was Michele Obama's boss. She is now
Obama's chief advisor and he does not make any major decisions without talking to her first. Where
was Jarrett born? Ready for this? Shiraz , Iran ! Do we see a pattern here? Or am I going crazy?

McCain has demonstated himself to be a belligerent and unsophisticated man. As much as I do not agree with his politics and policies, I am equally, if not more, appalled by his poor demeanor as a leader and role model. (In addition, I find Palin to be as fabricated as a boy band). It saddens me that much of America is as naive or short-sighted as recent media exposure has shown them to be.

Hey, John, can you do "Stuck in the Middle with You?" You being a "centrist" and all. It goes, clowns to the left of me, jokers to the right.

AMERICANS ARE SO AFRAID AND TIMID, THAT IS WHY THE REPUBLICANS WILL PUT FEAR IN THEM AND THEN FOR 4 MORE YEARS THEY WILL SUFFER THE DAY AND DAMMED THE HOUR.

McCain is losing in his home State of Arizona. Arizonians have not forgotten the Keating 5 scandal, his adultry life and never speaking up for Latinos who were being herded up like cattle, jailed and bused back to Mexico. Fact.

it really saddens me on how mccain has run his campign,, a disgrace to amerians,, and this joe the plumber,, what a joke,, he preys on this guy for sympathy?? lol,, well mr mccain like its been said here before, go home to one of your many homes, with your tail between your legs,,, you lost, and im not surprized,, the day you really care about americans is the day when h*** freezes over,,, obama/biden 08 abd beyond,,,(take palin with you)

For you obama writers writing all the insults about MCCain and Palin here are some for you. Mrs. obama is to ugly to be first lady. Her mother had to tie a pork chop around her neck so the dog would play with her. If she traveled around the world she's so ugly she would scare the other leaders so bad they would run and hide. Iran would start a war with us just to get rid of her. She is just as weird as her husband.

people should NOT watch SNL this weekend to let Lorne Michaels know people have had enough of free time to the MEGA Corrupt Party, the GOP. Get your rest or watch something else.

I'll be watching my eyelids.

McJoke, my friend, pease pack up. It is over

Yawn.. This isn't what he should be doing right now.

@ steve ... when I heard the speech, I had the same thoughts. A hero? I was shocked. McCain is a hero. Joe is a tax dodging, unlicensed fraud. I think McCain is tired and getting delirious.

Senator,
I am hopefully looking so forward to you becoming President of this
country. I am a Democrat voting for McCain. I, or should I say we
as there are 7 voters for McCain in my home, all family members and
registered Democrats also. We are just getting tired of the media sucking up to Obama. We have seen through his phoniness and
would encourage others to look deep also. It really frightens us.
You can count on our votes Senator and as many more we can muster
for you ... Hopefully we are looking at a Truman effect in this election and
you come out the victor. We all thank you have made a great choice in
Sarah. So you keep it up ( Mr. President ) !!!!! McCain/Palin Nov. 4 th.

Can McCain stay up that late?

It is not over until the fat lady sings. I don't hear any choirs. I am just wondering if this is going to end up being another George Bush election and wins by cheating and lying his way into the White House or is he and the poll workers for McCain going to play by the rules fair and square? I will be on the edge of my seat until 270 is reached. And by the way if he is so not race baised why is his state the only one in the nation that DOES NOT celebrate King Day????

Please print this CNN

Another CNN story tells us that McCain is stumping in his home state. If McCain is catching up to Obama the way some reports are saying why would he have to campaign in his own state?

He is because the race is not tightening nation wide but is tightening in Arizona for Obama. The poll that reports McCain catching up is the Mason/Dixon poll. It is one poll not a group averaged together.

This Mason/Dixon poll has always shown the race tighter than any other poll but has always been averaged with many other polls. So the McCain campaign has been pushing for reporters to show this poll as proof that McCain is gaining on Obama. The only thing that is true is that the area where this poll is taken the race is getting closer together but only is this area not nationally and most importantly not is PA. where McCain really needs to win to win at all.

Nice try McCain but overall this poll shows no real proof of you gaining any real ground.

Yes, McCain could loose his own home state. It is the political philosophy, stupid!!

Now McCain is irratyic again and such an idiot.

Whoever things MCain is honorable is an idiot too.

One would think McBush would be more focused on trying not to lose his home state of Arizona instead of trying to be on SNL!! Get out and Barack the Vote America!!

Obama/Biden '08

POST THIS COMMENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

obama supporters go to OHIO today and vote multiple times….they are letting us use park benches as home addresses if we are "homeless"…go up there and vote 20-30 times…you have to do it if you love obama

I just realized that John McCain is tragic character, much like Oedipus. He doesn't have a complex about his mother as much as trying to measure up to his father and grandfather. Unfortunately, as hard as he tries, he DOESN'T have the right stuff. He continues to only make things worse for himself, his campaign, and the country if elected. Therefore, he doesn't belong on a comedy show. He belongs on a psychotherapists couch.

I see CNN is back to moderating anything but pro-Obama posts–Tina Fey is a poor imitation of the real Palin–must have had a complete makeover to even come close–mousy without make-up.such a needy woman to hate a beautiful, accomplished woman simply because she is a bigger star than Fey!

Ya'll smell that? That's the foul stench of desperation!

obama supporters go to OHIO today and vote multiple times....they are letting us use park benches as home addresses if we are "homeless"...go up there and vote 20-30 times...you have to do it if you love obama

^This is McCain on tape declaring that he relies on Green Span's book to understand economics. Green Span himself declares that his views about the economic order he expresses in the said book are wrong.
So what left Senator?

WOW, another reason to not watch SNL again. I implore all who are sick of this man and his running mate to tune out on Saturday.

Well look who's the celebrity now.

MCCAIN RULES

Sen Obama made a good choice of selecting Rep. Rahm Emanuel as his Chief of Staff. Very good decision.

Thanks for the warning now I'm going to watch something else..

This is how we want the head of State Represented as a Joke on Late Night TV.

Palin is a Joke, but I guess McCain must think he is as well.

Every regular guy–with a $100 Million in the bank, 7 houses and too many cars to remember when you bought them –shouldgo on SNL!!

Well this outta be good. His campaign has been one punchline after another anyway. Maybe he can get SNL writers to write his speeches and Loren Michaels can handle his campaign next time.

If you can't outspend them, then get the air time for free. Good move by McCain, and a good way to use his charisma to flip a few character-based voters.

Hey its all about some free airtime and spreading the wealth around.

Who gives rats patutti. Can they even afford the make-up for this guy to look alive.

THE PLUMMER, THE BUILDER, THE BULLDOG, THE MAVERICK...... THE BAFOONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WAKE PEOPLE! ALL OF THESE CLOWNS COMBINED DON'T HAVE AS MUCH EDUCATION AS EITHER OF THE DEM CANDIDATES! DON'T YOU WANT YOUR PRESIDENT TO BE MORE EDUCATED AND INTELLIGENT THAN YOU ARE?.............. OR IS THAT MAKING IT EVEN HARDER TO DEAL WITH ?

My vote is NOT FOR SALE – AT ANY PRICE.

But if yours is, here's some FACTS to all who love the Obama Tax Plan.

I went to his website and used the "savings calculator". Some quick numbers for you...

My wife and I combined make about 100K. We no longer have dependents, and we have a mortgage. Popped those numbers into his calculator – I save $1800.

So let's see... averaged out, me and my wife each get a raise of 42 cents an hour.

YIPPEEEEEEEEE!!!!!

So if my vote was for sale... which IT IS NOT... we'd get an extra Domino's pizza (no toppings) every week!

Do the math people. What would you rather have – a cheese pizza or your job?

Vote the democratic way!!!! Early & OFTEN

I always suspected McCain was a superficial celebrity without any substantial proposals. Now that he is appearing on SNL this confirms that McCain's popularity is only due to a cult of personality.

he needs to be on the trail and not trying to make jokes.if he thinks hes going to sway my vote by being on SNL not going to happen.

I guess McCain has to do this to show he is tough–I will not watch ANY NBC production–after that mousy Tina Fey tried to look like the gorgeous and refreshing Palin. I am sure it took lots of makeup to even come close. I think Fey would scare you without her make-up. What a nasty woman–it sure takes a low confidence woman to cut up and hate a woman as accomplished as Palin.

Perhaps he will be doing a duet with the Fat Lady.

SNL makes sense for him and Palin. They aren't nothing but a joke anymore anyways.

I will make sure that I DO NOT watch McBush!! I am so tired of seeing his face!! Get out and Barack the vote America!!

Obama/Biden '08

John McCain on SNL is enough to make me stay up and watch it – - – - – NOT. Maybe this is the SNL-Ambien editition..

And, he accuses Obama of being a "celebrity".

McLoser

Another reason to vote for OBAMA!!!

McCain has a great sense of humor- should be good.

Obama will win this election with between 291 and 353 electoral votes.

We here are hoping this is his job interview, It's good when people find there true calling good for you John I plan to be a regular viewer.

Keep the material fresh and funny....

Desperate times call for depserate measures? Um... OK

I guess if you cannot dazzle them with brilliance, baffle them with...

He should...he is definately a joke!

Thanks for the heads up so I can be sure to read a book instead of watching. McCain has burned his bridges at my house during this campaign. I've had enough of his toxicity and have no desire to see him or hear him, my friend.

Go for it Senator-
If it has the same impact as Gov. Palin's , Obama will win in landslide. I wouldn't be surprised if he suspends his appearance to fly back to OH for a high level meeting with Joe the plumber.

Erratic, irrational: Not ready to lead our country

Vote for intelligence in the whitehouse
No to student #894 of 899
No to the sports journalism major

BO08

McCain has run the most dishonorable campaign I've seen in my life time. I have lost total respect for him as an American. I will honor his service, but that is it. His radio ads in Missouri are nothing but scare tatics!

Maybe he could bring Palin and his faked plumber for a clown parade!

It's a little late to exhume pre-2003 McCain at this point in the election. If the guy who appeared in McCain Sings Streisand, the guy who decried the Bush tax cuts and Karl Rove's smears had run in this election, he would be winning. But he died about five years ago.

Please do. Don't change your strategy now. It's working for Obama so far.

Hes funny alright,pretending to be a real canidate!!!!!!!!!!!

Who's the celebrity now?

why is SNL trying to help the Repubs by bringing them on so close to election day?

Maybe he and Bush can get fulltime jobs on SNL. Bush will be w/o a job soon.

Trying to start a new career? A great team with Palin.

Oh Magoo, you've done it again.

I've got a good feeling about this one.

Desperate times call for desperate measures! Maybe he'll bring the village people with him!

HOW SAD....MCCAIN HAS SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE AND OBAMA HAS CLINTON AND GORE!

The McCain camp is running the following robocall – completely without any support for any of these claims, and in fact their nature make them absurd in any case:

"Obama’s election invites a major international crisis he will be unprepared to handle alone. If Democrats win full control of government, they will want to give civil rights to terrorists and talk unconditionally to dictators and state sponsors of terror."

I almost couldn't beleive what I'd read, and can't imagine voting for these people – just lies and more lies – anything at all to win... Every point has been clearly refuted both by the Obama campaign and the media. Now a no-brainer – Obama/ Biden 08/12

If you cant raise enough money for air time ...

At least the script will be better .

Hey, maybe he can tell that joke about the $3 million study of bear genetics in Montana. You know the one, where he says he doesn't know if it was a legal issue or a paternity issue. That one always gets a laugh!

Well this is fitting as his whole campagin is a joke...being on SNL is the icing on the cake!! Sorry John, you are a true American hero, but we do not want you as our POTUS!!!!
Theeeeks, but no theeeks.

Obama/Biden 08 baby!!

Let's hope he does the "creepy husband" skit again

SNL can't help you now, Johnny. Your party has almost destroyed our country, and we are taking it back. Go back to Arizona and stay there.

O/B '08

He's lost what's left of his mind. SNL will make dog chow of him. Grampa, NOOOOOOO!!!

Pitiful. A hail Mary.

And regarding the underlying notion, "As polls tighten...", it's hogwash.

The polls aren't tightening. Look at ALL the polls. Take the averages after dropping the highest and lowest in your set. You'll see that the race MAY have shifted half a point. Maybe.

CNN, or FOX lite, NEEDS to have a tight race for ratings. The better the ratings, the more they charge for advertising. Ad dollars are the only poll that matters to broadcasters.

Oops! OBAMA/BIDEN '08

Seems like the GOP loves to look foolish on SNL...I mean Fey and the gang did a great job basiclly using nothing but verbatum spoken material making the GOP look like a bunch of morons. I think its good for candidates to go on there and have a little fun but in this election cycle I think it's clear SNL is no fan of the McCain/Palin ticket. Curious to see if they let Fey play along side Mac as his dopey sidekick..if Mac agrees to that then he in essence is agreeing with the notion that his VP pick is an imbicile.

Yawn.

what state has highest gasoline prices Illaska eueen of the pump palin tne phoney who distibutes funny money to alaskans is she a sicialist indiscribale

Isn't SNL on during McCain's bedtime? He is in his 70s and I don't know many OLD men in their 70s who can stay up late.

Bama/Biden '08

SNL is the perfect place for McCain. He's such a joke!

Obama/Biden landslide '08

I think it is very insulting to Americans who pay their taxes, that MCcain would call Joe `THE PHONY` American hero and a role model.
This is a tax dodger & unlicensed plumber.
What does it say about the judgment of this pander -in – chief , Mccain

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Obama 08

Too pander-y, too late, McCain. Go back to one of your dozen homes with your tail between your legs.

Just like McCain's campaign, his brand is so damaged now, that he will only be a laughing stock on SNL. Desperation, thy name is McCain!

GO OBAMA/BIDEN

What a twit! Instead of going out and trying to convince people that he is worthy (somewhat), he is going on to a TV show that will do nothing to help. Of course his Lipstick lapdog will be out there continuing her ridiculous tirades and "you betchas" for the lemmings to lap up. The rest of the country will sit back and laugh at her lame efforts to convince people that she is nothing but an empty pants suit that doesn't deserve to be anywhere near the Oval Office

Actually, he last appeared on SNL over the primary season, telling Seth and Amy to "fight amongst themselves." You should fix that cutline.

Just when you thought the show couldn't get any more boring.

No weird dancing please

The race is tightening and that shows that voters are not buying what Obama says about McCain :
"McCain is Bush" & " With McCain there will be 4 more years of Bush"

People should vote for Obama if they think Obama is ready and has easy solutions to everything..Otherwise better vote for Mccain…

I know Loren Michaels will be kind, but I really wish he would blast McCain!

Maybe they will do a skit on how McCain is relying on disinfrachising Democrat voters in order to steal the election.....

Or perhaps a mock beauty pageant where McCain selects his running mate?!?

Desparate times call for desparate measures. But then againl, we've all been laughing at him for several months now so why stop now.

I'll be sure to tune OUT! ~yawns~

MAYBE THEY WILL GIVE HIM A FULL TIME JOB AFTER NOV.4TH....

Nice place for the joker to end his campaign.

Nice gesture!!!, might as well go and sing your last Hurrah..Its been an interesting campaign

The tides are turning and the wind is behind McCain not the annointed one. Character, ability and proven leadership do matter to the American voter, especially in these trying times.

Obama is a bag of hot air, and his 30 minute speech contained no new information, soulutions or a hint that he was able to solve any problems.

Keep drinking your Kool-Aid and enjoy SNL as you watch the next President of the United States show that he too has a sense of humor.

McCain doesn't need the same amount of funds that Obama does to get the exposure or get out his message. He or Gov. Palin is always on Larry King Live as well as CNN, Fox (their own personal cable channel), ABC, GMA, NBC, SNL, as well as others. CNN usually plays sound bites from every campaign stop for Senator McCain or Gov. Palin for 1-5 minutes while only playing Senator Obama's for 30-45 seconds and then letting the talking heads explain what he said. I guess "No Bias No Bull" is the same as "Fair and Balanced".

What is he thinking? I will TIVO it instead of staying up, because I want to be fully awake to watch this final act of desperation. Will Joe the Plumber be there? Oh, the ultimate cringe factor....

Newscaster: Senator Obama, I want to congratulate you on raising a record $150 million in one month. Quite an accomplishment.

Obama: Thank you. We worked very hard and very long to raise that money.

Newscater: You don't mind if I take some of it and give it to Senator McCain? He doesn't have as much.

Obama: You can't do that! I worked hard for that money! That's my money!

Newscater: No so much fun when it's your money getting spread around is it???

Back when McCain had some judgment AND a sense of humor, that was great. I'd love to be fly on the wall during rehearsal when they are telling him to lighten up and he looks like a volcano...

Yawn. Who cares. He will probably be as boring as Palin was the other week.

Once again, the SNL writers won't have to do too much...McCain's entire campaign has been one big joke.

John McCain – He's good for a laugh.

Please, not the Beach Boys.

thanks for the warning...I will be watching something else!!!!

CNN policy of censoring unobjectionable comments is disappointing, especially so for a news organization. It seems at least half of my comments - solicited by your "add a comment" function - are rejected.

Here's a scenario I'd like to see: John sticking a plunger in Sarah's mouth, while Joe is accepting the GOP nomination for 2012.

This could be a new vaudeville act in the making....McCain and Palin duet sings the blues. Couldn't happen to a nicer couple.

I hope he gets booed off the stage for his antics over the past month.

I am surprised that McCain is going to appear after Palin was so disrespected last week. I must say that Mr. McCain sure has some thick skin. I am sure that the joke will be on him.

Give me a break.

I' m from Europe and have been following this election very closely. Why do I care? The entire world cares who will be your next President, because we are all affected by your policies!

I can say that I've been around a lot. I've lived in 4 different countries and travelled to approx. 35 others. Maybe it is due to my experience that I had with many people of different coulture, mentality, race etc. that I cannot understand – and I'm not alone there – that this presidential race is still so close.

For almost a decade the USA have shown to the world how it shouldn't be done. And the world hates you for that, be sure of that. It's pretty easy to blame your current moron president for everything, but you brought this on yourself by electing him. As if it wasn't enough after his first term, you went and reelected the guy in 2004! I admit that it looked with both elections that there was foulplay going on, but after Bush's 1st term he should have lost in a landslide.

Now we have pretty much the same situation as 4 years ago where the whole world is confident that the world power USA will finally have a reasonable and intelligent leader again. But I'm not very confident....
Although I pray for a landslide victory for the Democrats, I fear that you Americans are not smart enough to do it. I believe that if any other country had to choose between your 2 candidates (on one hand the pathetic old man and his even more pathetic sidekick who shout war, war, war all the time and on the other hand the charismatic, inspiring Obama who has a true vision of how America and the world should be) there would be no question as to the outcome of the election.

You Americans are the best in the world in so many things, yet so many of you are ignorant. If you elect Mccain and this annoying Palin as your leaders then you really don't deserve any better. But the world does, people, the world does.

So please go out and vote for OBAMA / BIDEN !!!

Is anyone working at CNN this morning ?

Sarah is the voice of America....

The highest ratings ever when she appeared.....

Can't wait to see John this Weekend!

America is a Great Country founded on Opportunity not Entitlement!

McCain/Palin-08

Although I'm not a McCain supporter, I will be tuning in to watch him. He is seriously funny. He just can't make good decisions.

Stay off the talk shows McCain. You don't have nothing to say except Obama Obama

well makes sense ..he is joke anyway

My friends... please don't ruin my weekend.

Time to hang his hat up, put his boots away, turn on the tele, and retire. He has been a great inspiration for many.

Maybe he can keep repeating about how he "has them right where we want them". Pretty hilarious stuff.

I hope it features a scene showing him trying to find Sarah Pea brain and Joe the plonker on the way to a press conference. Sad and pointless ... not half as funny as his campaign gimmicks.

I wish McCain had the charisma of Obama so we could just vote on the issues instead of likability. McCain would win in a landslide.

For anyone who actually understands how the economy works McCain is an easy choice. For those who blindly follow and are easily swayed by the unbelieveable amounts of infomercials, etc., I guess Obama is your man.

I understand that Obama's biggest concern right now, as reported this morning, is how to downgrade people's expectations if he is elected. Wow!! Already worried that he can't deliver what he promised and he isn't even elected yet. I wish the American voter would really look at the issues and what caused them and reevaluate their choice for President and look past the empty promises and rhetoric.

Then on November 4 I could actuall say, "President McCain"!

How appropriate : McCain and Palin are after all a comedy act.

Now McCain accuses Barrack Obama of voting on the side of Big Oil while Palin denounces him as a socialist ?

Who can beleive them any more ? I guess the less clever of the gun-totin' , goose-stepping right wing proto-fascist, red-neck evangelical freakshows.

Desperate times call for desperate measures.

Funny that the ticket that criticized Obama for being a "celebrity" is feeling like it has to do the SNL circuit in the final days of the campaign in a desperate attempt to turn things around. First Sarah, now John. You'd think that John would have different priorities for his time in the last days before election day, but that is the campaign that he has run. Transparently desperate.

Okay that's nice....who cares? We are going to vote for someone because they appear on SNL...maybe his appearance will have the same effect that the Palin appearance had.

I do not understand CNN... in a post last night they titled it "Buyers Remorse" stating their poll of polls shows Obama's lead shrinking to 5 points...then this morning they say their poll of polls have him holding steady @ 8 points! Why do they have to be so contradictory? Every poll shows Obama with a 6-8 point lead on average...but last night just to "create" a story they make it appear as though his lead is slipping away to do what exactly?
I mean I think its good in a way, b/c Obama supporters should not get too comfortable and think this is in the bag in any way...EVERYONE HAS TO VOTE!! However- the way you word your headlines is rediculous... I do not have buys remorse... the only remorse I will have is if I wake up on Wednesday November 5th and McCain and Palin are going to running our country- I think I would go into depression- never mind mourning!
My point is CNN is allll over the place- no coverage of Obama's ad, no coverage of Bill Clinton's speech Wednesday night- one of his most phenomenol speeches yet... anyone who says CNN is in the tank for Obama must not really be watching and reading lately... they contradict themselves at every turn, trying not to hurt anyones feelings- give me a break! How about you report the ACTUAL news- if it favors Obama then so be it, the truth is the truth- but to compare Obama's negative ads to McCains was where I drew the line- that was when I realized these reporters were puppets to Exxon advertising dollars and nothing more!

UGH

Our country's in financial ruin and a COMEDY SHOW is the best idea a presidential candidate has to offer us only days before a PRESIDENTIAL election?????

I voted for Bush twice so I pretty much blame myself for this whole mess. I know! I'll clean it up with Barack no-stain, no-nonsense, no-greasy residue, ALL-PURPOSE economic plan.

That One n' Joe 08'

What a joke! He is disgusting and turns my stomach. I hope SNL asks McCain about his ties with Columbia professor Rashid Khalidi. Sweep your own door steps before you try sweeping someone elses. Check the facts! The only terrorist attack we must worry about is what the Republicans create!

That is not fair...
They should not do it this weekend...They should give a chance to Obama/ Biden this time

Gee, what excitement, now I have something to do Saturday night, not.

THE MCCAIN SHOW – what a joker!

Alas, the Last Gasp. 4 days and then good riddance to failed policies.

Obama/Biden 08

Mcsame can't joke altough he is already funny ...

This will fit in nicely with the surrealistic turn that his campaign has taken from Sarah Palin to Joe the wannabe Plumber to Tito the Builder and the rest of the cast....

The joke is on you, John.

What a joke – Obama does 30 minute infomercial and it is slammend by Republicans. McCain and Palin both do Satruday Night Light and it is lauded as MUST SEE TV by the same group that chides Obama.

RIDICULOUS – I voted and proud to say I supported:

Obama/Biden
Kay Hagan
and Bev Perdue

I believe that would be "appearing on barely SNL" in his case, right? Fitting – the guy's campaign has been a sad joke of late.

When McCain gets away from the tactics of the campaign trail, loosens up and shows us the "old" John, he's a really likeable guy. Too bad he's made horrible decisions politically and embraced both the policies and tactics of the people who smeared him so badly in 2000. He might be in a very different position in the election now if he had stayed true to what he stood for 8 years ago instead of listening to the Bush cronies and selling his integrity for votes in the right wing "base". I'll watch and likely enjoy him on SNL, but he's not getting my vote.

Just don't accuse McCain of being a celebrity...

I'm sorry, but I have absolutely no interest in watching.

This might be very confusing for John McCain.

He might get the mistaken impression that we are laughing with him instead of laughing at him

5 days left and McCCain has his priorities STRAIGHT!

SNL first, then the campaign trail!

Lol!

McCain trying his best to show that he has a sense of humor and is a swell guy.--NOT!

Yup, he's got his priorities straight, 3 days before the election.

Have fun!

It is a mistake by SNL to even invite McCain within 10 days of the election to appear on their show. It invites the possibility of helping him appear less wooden and puppet like to the American public. At this point SNL needs to stick to its internal skits etc. and stay out of it. It is also a mistake by the CNN and the media in general to over cover McCain and his sinking ship saga day after day after day. It is tantamount to throwing a drowning shark a life preserver to build the hopes of his handlers and allow the tense ratings building saga to coax those that always love the underdog to vote for him.. He has been savaging Obama day in and day out, yet I see a preponderance of coverage given to his efforts and that of his Barracuda moose milk maid, Sarah Palin. Equal coverage guys and stop playing to the angst of American voters for ratings!

And him being on SNL is supposed to do WHAT?

Comedy is what the McCain campaign does best!

Good....now 5-10 million people can see him for the 'JOKE" he really is! Hmmmmm.....WILL "JO THE NO SHOW" POP UP TOO"?

OBAMA/BIDEN -08!

The horror. The horror.

McCain is real. Palin is real.

obama or biden appearing on SNL would ruin their facade.

Saturday Night Live has long been a place for jokes... so that's a good place for the current incarnation of McCain. Hey, better there than the White House.

McCain has a great sense of humor and, unlike Obama, he can poke fun at himself. He will be great on SNL. It is unfortunate that the Liberals have decided to make this election largely about race and, as a result, we are not allowed to poke fun at Obama or even criticize the man for fear of being called a racist. It is disgusting. I thought Obama was the candidate that was above race? I thought he promised not to use race in the election? He went back on that promise as well. If Barack Obama were a white man named Bobby O'bannion, who had served only 2 years in the Senate and had an undistinguished record and little experience I would still not vote for him. So do not make me feel like I am being racist because I choose not to vote for a man whose entire politics I disagree with. if Obama loses it will be because the majority of Americans have rejected his radical left views, not because he is black.

With an election 4 days away, John McSame chooses to go on SNL, when there are real issues at hand?? What a LOSER!

OBAMA '08!

Yeah, we can laugh all the way to the polls but FINALLY, within the last couple of weeks before election day, we are finding out what Obama is all about, and when the facts are presented the Republican campaign is accused of fearmongering. The truth is, an Obama presidency IS something to fear. The man will bring this country into further despair as he injects his socialist/marxist ideology into our Republic and destroys this nation. If you want to call this fearmongering go ahead and choose your mode of denial, but when you have to face the reality of this please don't try to again blame the republicans for the disaster he and his cronies subject us to. Not only will Obama's agenda bring us down further but as Biden said (NOT the Republican campaign) an Obama presidency will invite an attack on this nation; don't be surprised just keep on supporting him, that way we can all come together again as we are totally destroyed.

Do you know the words to "Sayonara", John?

But ..... who cares, at this point?

Wow he has nothing else better to do. I hope they rip Palin again while he's there. I really dont care anyway. It will be his last performance anywhere after Tuesday.

Joe the Plumber. Let's give it up for Joe. Eh, Eh, Eh!!!! Joe? Is Joe here today? (McCain to himself…Oh crap, he was supposed to be here!!!! Grumble, grumble, grumble!!!) Well you are all Joe the Plumbers!!! I’ve got to give him credit for his comeback, but LOL, that was the funniest thing I've seen in a while!!!! It is so ironic that the McCain campaign is taking on water and the Plumber stood him up!!! I'm on the floor!!!!

You gotta wonder exactly what office is McCain running for. Looks like Buffoon in Chief to me...

McCain is extremely desperate right now and doesn't know what to do. His running mate Palin is backstabbing him behind the scenes and he is snubbing her on the bus rides. Can you imagine these two in the White House together? They can't even get along for a few months let alone 4 years? The would be an internal war in the White House let alone all the other disasters happening around the world.

Too bad that old McCain can't come back and sing us some more Streisand. I liked thet guy.

But that would be considered "not Presidential" nowadays I guess. Have to be all serious and angry, with that rictus smile.

He should apply for a job and remain on SNL on a weekly basis. In view of the lies he has been spreading, a laugh is all he is good for after he has decided to lower himself to the rock bottom of the gutter in order to become president.

Senator McCain...as funny as your whole campaign has been, you should audition for a permanent roll on this show.

You have been hilarious for the past 6 months, so why not get paid for it.

At least when people laugh at you for being such a big fool and a dunderhead it will be less painful.

Obama/Biden '08

McCain should do a skit where he is Darth Vader, because he has gone to the dark side. Not sure who could play Yoda.

Any chance he's funnier than Palin....NOT:)

Desperate times call for desperate acts. However, you will only fool yourself John. Half of your party, and even your home state, is turning against you.

The clock ticks...soon you'll be joining "Big Dubya" Bush in his ranch, Palin will go back to "drill baby drill" in Alaska, and the country will forget about the two most ridiculous, hypocritical candidates it has ever seen.

Is Papa John going on SNL and show up Sarah Palin? Or is he going to show viewers that he has comedy material in him?

Look, as a serious Papa John supporter all along, I found out he had comedy material in him after he picked Sarah Palin!

Go ahead, Papa John! Have the last laugh! I hope the joke 's not on you this time around!

Too late. Everybody under the age of Forty will vote Obama.

Last hurrah?

Obama 08

Is THIS the big GAME CHANGER that Republicans have been hoping for?

Will he sing again?

Break dance?

Do the Macarana, to prove he's "current?"

Yeah, that'll change everything...

And McCain turns more and more into a joke. The SNL skit did not help palin because she is too light weight.. it just made her lighter. And Mccain oddly has now become a shell of his former self. He talks about nothing that would make my life better. He just talks like Hannity. Only about 30% of the people like Hananity. The rest think he is over the top or flat out nuts. McCain is now with the far right ranters. That turns him into a joke.

I think I remembered an emergency root canal I'm scheduled to have on Saturday night...

Ah well, another good show gone to waste for another week!

Perhaps he is hoping to prove he can work on TV in the hope of becomming a presenter, I hear good money can be earned by failed Republican Presidential candidates having their own show!

Will they call the show " Saturday Night Bareley Alive "?

Yeah, because THAT will convince people to vote for him and help him get elected where all his Obama-bashing failed.

When in doubt and trying to get elected and sleeze tactics fail... use comedy and send them laughing to the polls, right McCain?

It's too bad our nation's voters will be laughing at you and your sleazy campaign as they're leaving the polls come Tuesday as they vote Obama our next POTUS.

WAKE UP, AMERICA!! VOTE SMART... NOT SENILE!!!

He must have a death wish.

SNL did a number on Palin, and now the top of th ticket is lining up for more of the same.

Is this a surrender?

What a nice fun thing for John McCain to do before he goes back to work as a Senator.

Yeah – that's a good reason to vote for him, because he appears on SNL, not!. Maybe part of the skit could be him actually talking about issues. What a transparent ploy to gain the interest of the young voters. Or is it damage control for what's left of his political career?

I really wish he wouldn't. McCain and Palin are ruining the very funny roll that SNL was on. Being on SNL will not change the race.

McSAME and his PA'IN is "HEAD STRONG AND DEAD WRONG"!!! That is why they are losing.... Case in POINT!!! If they weren't so NASTY and DIRTY, they nay have had a chance.

McSAME made one of the MOST important decisions he could make when he picked his VP!!! He FAILED!!! So how would he run the White House? The same choices will be made that was in his mind when he choose PA'IN. SNL CANNOT HELP HIM!!!

OBAMAN / BIDEN – 4-DAYS LEFT TO VICTORY!!!! YES WE CAN!!!

Can he stay up that late?

McCain is too old to be president! I have great respect for the man, but i do think his age is a valid issue.
Especially because his running mate Palin terrifies me! If she becomes president the USA would fall apart! And Americas already poor global reputation will be shattered!!

Imagine Sarah Palin dealing with the Iraq war..... the economic crisis she knows nothing about..... What if USA is attacked again while she is in charge. That is Scary!

Is SNL the new place for desperate candidates? He'd have better luck with a "Colbert bump".

go out with Dignity John, or not, but go out. Palin was a horrible choice. What were you thinking?

Times are to serious to be joking around. McCain need to focus on his concession speech.

Steve

Kentucky

Can anybody say "TOAST".

WOW last minute stop on SNL to tell more lies.

That would make sense since McCain and Palin's campaign has been ONE BIG JOK E! Reminds me of the captain in the movie Titanic, asking for the band to play on as the waters rise ever higher around him Still better for McCain to laugh rather cry in the final days of his failed bid for the presidency I guess.

Finally, a joke that isn't cruel. He's cruel – he's a hypocrit, liar, fear-monger, hate-monger, and many other evil things.

Would you want your children to tell the tall tales this man does? Or would punishment be in store for them.

McCain wants his own war in Iran. That's all he wants.

It ain't gonna help him ...

He might as well stay home ...

It's sad that McCain's mental decline is taking place on a world stage, and Palin always was a joke.

Nothing is going to help him.

Maybe Tina Fey would kindly tell McDuh Joe (not) the Plummer
EATS PASTE!!!!!

OBAMA/BIDEN '08!!!!

When did SNL start doing comic tragedy skits?

MCCAIN AND PALIN HAVE MADE A JOKE OUT OF THIS ENTIRE CAMPAIGN, IN OUR WORST ECONOMIC CRISIS EVER, THEY STILL THINK THE VOTERS ARE IGNORANT, SHAME ON THEM BOTH. VOTE OBAMA-BIDEN

That skit where McCain announces the stupid guy pretending to be a plumber is at the raly but he is not there. That was too funny and then McCain says "you're all Joe the plumber" Wow that was really far fetched and not at all realistic but I guess that's what made it funny. Great job SNL.

Desperation is a stinky cologne.

It won't help him gain any new votes. i think everyone is decided John. Give it up already. I'm not even a pundit BUT I'm writing you off.

OBAMA/BIDEN 08
