1. Meh...I laughed at them both.

It's a nice break from the crap. Ironically, McCain kissing Catholic ass is hilarious to me.

4. I laughed, too. And I learned something new.

I'd never realized that McCain was once a P.O.W.

2. OK, that was funny, though I think it was uncomfortable for him. Particularly liked his

introduction of Obama.

3. I think he more or less admitted that the election is over.

And as much as I hate to say it, I think he showed a lot of class in his remarks about Obama. Olbermann, well...not so much.

6. Wow.

I got a little teary-eyed at the kind words he said about Obama.

Assuming he was truly sincere, he should be even more ashamed of the hatred he and especially his running mate have been riling up on the campaign trail.

7. Wow

I didn't think he, or anyone who would write speeches for him, had it in them. I don't know how his supporters might take this event, but McCain redeemed himself to a certain degree in my eyes. He certainly rose to the occasion.

11. Check youtube for the remaining videos

I think the first half of McCain's set was more funny, but it was nice to see some kind words for Obama at the end of this one.

They were BOTH quite funny and fairly evenhanded in their digs.
