Obama is on SNL

Barack Obama is doing a walk-on during the opening skit on Saturday Night Live which is of a Halloween party hosted by Hillary Clinton. Hillary is dressed as a bride but everyone, including her husband, mistakes her for a witch. Bill is dressed as a pimp, I think. Chris Dodd and Joe Biden both came as Spongebob. Bill Richardson is Al Gore, hinting he wants to be veep.

Brian Williams is the host. I knew that the news ratings were ever in decline but this does smack of desperation. However, the opening monologue is promising. He began with: "Everyone is thinking the same thing. Is this a good idea?" Indeed.
