Though it was on a lighter note, I think it makes people realize how biased the media was towards Hillary. I enjoyed watching it and I am still hoping and praying that Hillary win the nomination.

My Dad had heart problems, but would still indulge in sweets, and such, high fat foods he was supposed to avoid. So, we'd go out, inevitably making our way to the Hostess outlet store, and he'd turn to me and say "Don't tell your Mom about this." Ok.

Dana Carvey came into prominence becasue of his spot-on imitation of Bush Sr. And Clinton?

If they think <code><strong>NO COMEDIAN is going to poke fun at him or imitate him they need to think again.</strong></code> There was a cottage industry of Nixon impersonators and they were brutal. SNL has a tradition of poking fun at presidents. When the first began in '75 they did bits on Jimmy Carter and his wild and wooly brother Billy. They socked it to Reagan. Dana Carvey came into prominence becasue of his spot-on imitation of Bush Sr. And Clinton? Come on they did bits on his infidelity relentlessly and were downright cruel. If Hillary could take that Obama can take this little stuff that's been lobbed at him so far. Can he take it like a man? Or as the rappers say: <em>"Is he a punkass?"</em> They've done Al Gore and of course they have had a field day with Bush/Cheney. If Obama can't and his supporters can't take it then how are they going to deal with anything? I loved the debate segment and the animation of Obama trying to duck being seen with Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton. I hope next week they do a bit about Obama keeping his white grandmother away from the public eye. Trust me, when Obama comedown starts happening, they're going to LOVE these bits. Keep'em coming SNL. Obama supporters better get real. If they think NO COMEDIAN is going to poke fun at him or imitate him they need to think again.

It's a fantastic commercial though. Hillary was great tonight, and the skit was spot on. What the media did to her this season was an utter disgrace. If she loses, someday someone will have to write a book entitled <em>The Media Assasination of Hillary Clinton.</em> They probably couldn’t show it on tv because I doubt very highly that Jack Nicholson has the rights to all those films.

Yes, that was choice. I've been fortunate to imitate people to them, and it can be rather twilight zone for both involved. years ago bush sr came into a store I ran in Houston...I had to resist.
