The new Barack Obama on SNL got it just right . . . Mitt's a gift

[bigtree]

. . . the last week has been one incredible 'gaffe', misstatement, or obvious lie after another from Romney. Ryan , too.

There's an incredible explanation for it all . . .THEY WERE ACTUALLY TRYING AS HARD AS THEY COULD! Apparently the idea of a Romney/Ryan presidency is just a little bit less of a clusterfuck than the actual product in front of us.

Oh, and right on SNL!

1. The Obama Ad was a fuckin' riot and right on!

That ad is gonna hammer Bain into our collective memories till way after the elections!

[bigtree]

3. that was hilarious too! It was perfect

. . . because it RINGS TRUE! It's entirely believable that Romney followed that black fellow around, shutting down his jobs, out of some kind of sick spite or antipathy.

9. It was hilarious...loved it

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

2. I didn't think he was all that good.

He exaggerated Obama's speech mannerisms too much and became unconvincing and a little irritating. The "Romney" wasn't bad, though.

4. content, Ocelot

Romney's getting ripped

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

5. That's true. Although I think they missed a few opportunities there.

The problem with Romney is that he is so awful he's almost unsatirizable.

[obnoxiousdrunk]

10. The make up was awful.

They made it look like Obama was blind.

7. "I haven't laughed this hard in a long time"

yep!

[Cha]

8. I don't have a tv..so

haven't seen it yet. Thanks for the report on SNL, bigtree!

The best Pres Obama I've seen is Imon Crosson ..Alpha Cat.

[Rowdyboy]

16. Way too cool....:I've got 99 problems but Mitt ain't one"

Way too cool

[Cha]

21. It cracks me up just ..

reading the words!

Here's Alpha Cat's latest Thanks to "silverweb" in Vids..

"I Don't Like"..

[CakeGrrl]

18. He's great!

One of my favorites is the one where he's vetting selections for his Cabinet.

[Cha]

22. Have you seen the latest, CakeGrrl?

It's just upthread..I saw "I Don't Like" for the first time tonight.. I Love It!

I may have missed the Cabinet one..I'll have to go back and see it!

14. Maybe I am just paranoid, but I didn't like it

I came away with the feeling they were saying that the Obama campaign was unfairly attacking Romney.

I guess it was just me. I am relieved that others did not get that impression.

[DevonRex]

15. I got the same impression. For the other part

I got the impression that they were saying Obama was terrible but Romney is a freak so what're you gonna do?

[Cha]

23. I saw it in Vids and I

didn't think it was funny which is the worst thing you can think about a SNL skit, I would imagine. Not even a smile.

If we're all talking about the same one..

[onestepforward]

17. Romney's mannerisms were captured perfectly!

Cover up his head and you'd swear it was Romney, LOL!

[jillan]

20. And Paul Ryan too. Perfect!

[Jennicut]

24. Jason Sudeikis is pretty brilliant.

He does Joe Biden and Romney perfectly. Captured Romney's social awkwardness.

[jillan]

19. I thought SNL was hilarious between the opening skit, and the Clint Eastwood and the chair but

that Bain ad! Mitt doesn't cover his mouth when he sneezes
