Revived, from New York:
With the Saturday Night Live sketches and appearances giving Hillary Clinton's campaign a much needed boost in March, it's been announced that the next round of debates between Clinton and Sen. Obama will be moderated by Mary Catherine Gallagher, Beldar Conehead and the Spartan Cheerleaders.

In fact, when Hillary Clinton drops out of the race, she's been asked to join the cast of "Saturday Night Live." She'll be one of the "Not Ready for Presidential Players."

With the SNL bump in the polls, talk has begun of Clinton and Barack Obama running together as president and vice president. The main stream media keeps referring to this solution as the "Dream Ticket." Or as the conservatives call it, the "Nightmare Scenario."

The state of New York fined the personal corporation of Democratic Senate candidate Al Franken $25,000 for not carrying workers' compensation insurance for almost three years. Franken responded, "That may have been a clerical error made by me, Al Franken."

In an attempt to bolster her foreign policy credentials, Hillary Clinton claimed that when she went to Bosnia in 1996 she was the first president's wife to enter a war zone since Eleanor Roosevelt...Not counting her marriage. Then her claims that the trip was "harrowing" and "dangerous" was rebuked by comic Sinbad, who said that the scariest part of the USO trip was deciding where to eat. Huh-uh. If you've got Sinbad contradicting your foreign policy experience, maybe it's time to pack it in. Yet Clinton asserted she remembered "landing under sniper fire." If by "sniper fire" she meant "small child with poem." Frankly, the story never really made sense. If it was that dangerous, why would President Clinton send his wife and daughter there? Okay, Hillary, we can understand, but Chelsea? Finally, Clinton stated she "misspoke." You know how you can tell when Hillary is mis-speaking? Her lips are moving.

Sen. Clinton bluntly challenged Barack Obama to agree to new primaries in Michigan and Florida saying it was "wrong, and frankly un-American" not to seat delegates at the Democratic National Convention who back her.
