So I’ve been following the Presidential Debates very loosely recently and what caught my eye was the special edition SNL episodes immediately following The Office.  They basically take the funny bits from the more recent debate and make them funnier.  Some of you might have seen my post about the debate, so here’s SNL’s take on the same thing right here.

After a lengthy session of Halo 3 Tuesday night, I decided to tune into the last few minutes of the second presidential debate.  For some reason it feels like they just avoid all the direct questions and just keep going around and around the issue until it sounds like they made a good point.  I’m not a real big fan of politics myself, so the best thing I could pick up on was that Obama looked more comfortable without a podium than McCain.  Also McCain is really really old, but that’s not really the issue here…or is it?  If McCain dies of old age, we’ll be stuck with Palin.  At least she has to be better than Dick Cheney.  Where is that guy anyway?  Maybe he’s trying out for the U.S. Olympic Shooting Team.  And did anyone see that nobody in the “town hall” meeting was Asian?  At least they could proportion the people somewhat close to the 5% of the population that Asians represent in the United States.  In any case, here’s a little clip of Tom Brokaw that I thought was pretty funny.
