3. Well....
I think this is a pretty wild charicature of her campaign. A little over the top for my tastes.
Stating the obvious maybe on many points but I didnt really laugh at it. As comedy I think it failed, Of course I havent been a big SNL fan for a long time.

4. They didn't exaggerate, that's true,
but they didn't need to. Hillary's return to her glorious Goldwater girlhood is funny enoough without help.

10. I don't know, they nailed her three talking points for staying in the race
1) I am a sore loser
2) My supporters are racist
3) I have not ethical standards

That pretty much sums it up at this point.

6. SNL ..... still isn't funny
I saw the video, it was harsh, but you know what? I didn't laugh, I cringed.
I think that the writers could have taken the same theme and done something
as hard hitting but funny. It lacked "the setup', the surprise and the unexpected,
and other basic elements of doing a good joke.

I watched a little more of SNL that night and still couldn't find their sketches funny.

Believe me I love humor
and as you know don't care for the Clintons.

We have better political humorist on DU.

8. Nah, they nailed every aspect of the
Hillary Haters Club, their rhetoric and gross distortions. It was pretty funny.

12. But Not Her Supporters. I Am A Hillary Clinton Supporter And I Am Not A Racist
In fact, they didn't nail anything.

14. I think the point is she's saying her supporters are all racists, even though they aren't

13. Now, will the media give it the coverage that they gave her SNL...
appearance or will they just skim over it and let it die?
