Spotlight

While debating whether or not SNL has been endorsing candidates has been a hot topic recently, Entertainment Weekly spotlighted a related--and potentially more important--story: The fact that Saturday Night Live is pulling relevant political punches again.

I don't think they're pulling relevant political punches. If anything, they seem to be throwing them with more effectiveness than everyone's favorite Comedy Central duo. If it's true that SNL influenced the primary elections, that just shows two things: SNL blends wit and manipulation, and the American people will believe anything they hear.

I loved Amy Poehler's comment at the end of that article. It's too bad she wasn't in the cast the last time Nader made a (very humorous) guest appearance.
