I saw that! I haven't tuned into SNL in...years? a decade? but I tuned in, hoping Tine Fey would be on. My brother hadn't seen the Sarah Palin clip and was stunned when I told him the answer was verbatim from Palin's reply. I love the internet; we were able to pull it up so he could see for himself.
Wesley Clark would have been an interesting choice. I don't know a lot about his positions but he's a well-spoken, thoughtful kind of guy. I've seen some Biden "gaffes" and yes, he was incorrect that FDR addressed folks on television in 1929, a real gaffe but a lot his gaffes seem to be of the "willing to speak what's true" like "I might not have been the smartest choice for VP." Couldn't *ANY* candidate claim that? I don't consider that a gaffe but I'm not a fan of issue-free elections.
This financial crisis has done at least one good thing: it has forced us to quit squabbling over stupid tits-for-tats and focused us on exactly how important it is to vote based on *issues.*
