Hillary Clinton on Saturday Night Live
Is Hillary Clinton creating some momentum? She’s up with 4% in the latest Ohio poll, and only 2% behind in the latest Texas poll. On top of that, she appeared on Saturday Night Live yesterday, and did quite well. You can watch a clip of it here. “Do I really laugh like that?”
That’s funny.
One of the main things about SNL is that the candidates can prove, or disprove of course, that they have a sense of humor. Unlike her nickname (The Glacier) suggests, Hillary does have a sense of humor. And what’s more fun than watching an important woman (person) making fun of herself?
Meanwhile, head on over to Crooks and Liars if you want to read what far-left supporters of Obama have to say about SNL and Hillary Clinton. These people clearly lack a sense of humor. Of course, that’s a sign of radicalism. Radicals seldom have a sense of humor. They’re too busy being… I dunno, radical.

The problem is that most of Hillary’s jokes look as if they’re staged to make her look more likable. There’s nothing likable about focus-group driven attempts to humanize a candidate. I don’t think use of humor always says something positive about a candidate either. For example, I remember a lot of people saying how good Hillary’s spoof of the last Soprano’s episode was. But if you have to run a campaign on gimmicks, its probably done in place of a more serious calling.
Don’t be silly, or I apologize if you just can’t tell… Senator Clinton only needs to share her guarded genuine side. She is funny and
bright. Great sense of humor and she is demonstrating a short learning curve how to show off her hidden charm.
Redfish,
Gimmicks, Like Obama saying he is all about bringing people together and then taking Spiritual Advice to this day and the title of his book from his Pastor who has repeatedly honored Louis Farrkhan, and visited Quadaffi in Libya with him. Or do you mean gimmicks like how Obama proclaims he was always against the war but in 2004 stated that he didn’t know how he would have voted??? Or do you meam gimmicks as when Obama talks about all his Ethics and transparency but has deep, deep ties to Tony Rezko???? Are those gimmicks or just out and out deception????? By the way for anyone who wants to dismiss any of what I listed above, just google it for yourself and makeup your own mind about this so-called "New Politics"…… This man is a complete phony and an utter joke……
chris vant, the genuine hillary has a likeable side, and arrogant, bitter side, which has been written and reported on. she’s needed to guard both, because all and all, she’s been ambitious.
winterhunt, im not necessarily contrasting hillary to obama. i’m just saying that if humor fills in for lack of an earnest campaign, its not better.
Gee, imagine that, a person running for president is ambitious! Well, what will they accuse Hillary of next?
The presidency does not fall in your lap, my friend. You are right, Hillary, Obama, and John are all ambitious. Guarded–yes public people with any class are guarded or in Obama’s case "aloof" seems to be the favorite word. Not everyone cares to go around like Britney Spears. We have forgotten what dignity is about in our country.
I don’t know who you mean when you say they, but I’m not persecuting Hillary. You know what people mean when they say ambitious, and it doesn’t simply mean that they want to do something.
