That was about the most non-presidential thing to bring up.
I saw the skit - it was funny, but obviously written from one perspective.

Mad Magazine next?

Should Bush get on the WH lawn and cry every Sunday after he reads Doonesbury (which I doubt he does).

2. The skit wasn't negative to Hillary.
If you saw the skit, you'd know that.

5. My god what a baby
That was just a jaw-dropping thing to whine about.
They hand her control of the debate early on, and not only does she fail to captitalize on that gift, but she bitches about it?! What a fool. An unpresidential petty fool.

6. Actually, SNL was positive - it told the truth. So she mentioned it. keep these up

8. What A Sad Attempt At Disparaging Hillary. My God.
Weak. So weak.

1. The SNL skit wasn't negative.

2. She wasn't complaining about the SNL skit.

3. Regardless of how you or others want to twist it, she actually raised a good point.

9. I wish she could have delivered it a little better, but she's right.
Not only the MSM, but especially the blogs. Huffington especially has been out to get her since the beginning. It's a shame that the left has intentionally tried to defeat their most viable candidate.

10. She's gotten the first question 6/10 times. Chosen by coin flip. Why's she complaining?

14. Oh For Chrissakes Can You Really Not Figure That Answer Out All By Yourself?
C'mon now. There's an absolute common sense, rational and reasonable answer to your question that just a few moments of objective thought should be able to provide you with.

15. I agree on all three points..so would Obama!
Why bring it up in a debate?

1. And I didn't say it was negative toward her.

2. No - she was using a SNL skit as a point of reference in a DEBATE. Come on, have you ever watched TRUE Lincoln Douglas or Policy debate? Kind of a weak source.

3. OK - she's debating Obama. Obama probably wouldn't disagree that there are media biases out there. The the point is moot in a debate against your opponent.

Her job last night wasn't to battle the media. It was to battle Obama.

13. That was about the most immature and petty way to address something I've ever seen.
She was a complete embarrassment.
