The Affleck/Olbermann skit was great.

I thought the opening skit was good... infinitely better than Palin's.

"McCain Fine Gold."

Thanks for posting that. I don't watch SNL, so I would've missed that one.

I also don't watch K.O.
Did Affleck do a good job with his impersonation of Olbermann?

He nailed it.

Wow - if that's the case, I can't imagine why anyone would watch that man!

Or why people watch demagogues on the other side of the aisle like Limbaugh or O'Reilly.

Obviously, like any good send-up there was exaggeration in Affleck's portrayal, but the mannerisms were spot on. Olbermann has a mean streak just like so many of today's talking heads.

Yeah, I can't stand any of them. I think the only show I'll watch from time to time is Glenn Beck, but that's extremely rare...and I don't think he really comes across as being on one side or the other - at least on the shows I've caught.

It's a comedy skit. They tend to use exaggeration as a comedic device.

Yes, I certainly assumed that...but I can read through that and still see that man would be obnoxious.

He is obnoxious but some of the time he actually has excellent stories.

at the Olbermann skit.

Olberman's been a moron since his Sportscenter days. Didn't this guy used to work for FOX too?

OK that was kinda funny, and I guess he did a good job. What I don't understand is how is it supposed to get him more votes?

[SpursFanFirst]

He needed to loosen up a bit, and I think he did so here...whether or not that gets him votes, I don't know.
But it was fun to watch anyway.

McCain is very good when it comes to making fun of himself.

Oh, and Tina Fay is hot!

[Trainwreck2100]

yeah, free coffee
