Midnight Movie: Now This Is What Effective Political Humor Looks Like!
I'm trying not to get too excited about this thing - I bear deep emotional scars* from '04 and '00 (not to mention '98 and '94). And if you recall, our team also had the superior online mockery back in 04.
But damned if the sheer volume of really effective Making-McCain-look-ridiculous mockery isn't making me hopeful. Also, attention SNL: This guy is way funnier than the douche you have impersonating Obama right now. Hire him immediately. That is all.
More election hilars below the fold.
