SNL Turns on Hillary: "I Am A Sore Loser" - Video
Edited on Sun May-11-08 10:02 AM by K Gardner

I saw the discussion here last night, but only found the video link this morning. Fairly Brutal.

"Unlike my opponent, I am not going to lose gracefully."

"My supporters are racist."

"This nomination is going to be decided, as it should be, by the superdelegates - based on their sober assessment of which candidate would be the strongest. I am that candidate because I am a sore loser."

"Unlike Senator Obama, I have no ethical standards. Even my critics would agree, I will stop at absolutely nothing to win. Senator Obama has been reluctant to play the race card. I will be happy to play the gender card and claim that anyone who doesn't vote for me is a sexist."

and on and on and on...

1. Great Video
I dont think they ever were on her side, but she is in need of spoofing that is for sure. You know what they say "its funny cause its true"

2. Tina Fey is a known Hillary supporter, but I don't know about the rest.
Thanks for posting the video - I missed the show last night. The funniest part is that they weren't even exaggerating.

12. She denies supporting Clinton.
Heres an article that references that fact:

More recently, Poehler and Fey's biting commentary has fed into dialogue about the election, and the punch line "Bitch is the new black" is now appearing on pro-Clinton T-shirts (despite strenuous protestations that it was not any kind of endorsement).

3. Well, that's refreshing
I catch SNL infrequently, and the last one had a mock debate between Clinton & Obama in which Obama was given all 'softball' questions, constantly solicited on whether the chair was comfy enough, etc. Haven't watched since.

Ms. Clinton brought on this ridicule herself, so I'm glad it's given token recognition - even if it's in the form of parody. Goddess forbid that she would be held up to scrutiny in the corporate news media :eyes:

4. The video is honest and necessary. Hillary needs to understand how her image
is suffering unnecessarily.

Hear about it last night and I don't watch SNL. Glad someone posted this so I could see it.

7. Ouch.
She nailed it, I gotta say. Sad, too. It didn't have to be this way.

13. The jokes were on a par with I AM A DO-DO HEAD
When jokes are so lame, they lose their punch for me.

10. I doubt it will end here. The longer she refuses to accept reality the "funnier" the skits will be
