WTF?? Does McCain think this skit helps him?

[Thrill]

Looks like Lorne Michaels screwed him

1. I was a good face-saving concession -- putting the blame on Palin

13. Here's McCain's problem - the skits were too realistic.

When he talked about going reverse maverick or double maverick, that actually sounded a lot like something he might actually say on the stump.

The guy looked like a guy who's already given up.

2. What skit? Do you have a link?

[Thrill]

4. SNL

[BrklynLiberal]

3. I think it is his Last Hurrah. He is admitting defeat...subliminally.

5. concession skit n/t

[Lancer]

6. I was laughing hysterically and telling the TV "stroke of genius!"

if, indeed, the idea was to put the McCain campaign in a deep freeze forever.

7. Amazing - McCain really trashed his running mate...

[zulchzulu]

8. The skit was self-deprecating to a point where it actually reminded people he's an old ass

He was a good sport, but the skit actually hurt him more than helped him.

9. This is the most comfortable McLame has EVER looked standing next to "Sarah Palin"

Seriously!

10. He WAS amusing. n/t

11. I ventured into freeper territory to see what their reaction was

Most thought it was hee-larious...though one person said "That dig at Palin was kind of weird...", but then someone replied and said "No, this made BOTH McCain and Palin look good!" Heh, I didn't watch, so I can't comment further, but that's their reaction.

12. Any publicity is good publicity, so they say.
