Confusing Carville with someone who would confuse Carville with a Marxist? That's a stretch.

2. I'm recommending because a lot of DUers mentioned this last night. |

Thanks for the video, Grassy Knoll.

they didn't interrupt each other enough, and were performing in slow motion. They missed the Fox frantic atmosphere.

4. I agree. They should have interrupted ach other more, |

then it would have been more believable.
The James Carville imitation was amazing.

Hopefully Lorne Michaels will pass the torch to Tom Davis and make SNL better.

Yeah.... maybe they can get it back up to a whopping "30% sorta funny", like in the 70's.

14. Is this what Sarah means by 'lame stream media'? |

They were obviously trying pretty hard not to be too offensive to right-wingers. This sketch would have had a noticeably different tone if I'd written it...
