Comedians on the campaign--Kucinich gets a mention
Each day, AP lists some monologue jokes from the night before.

Letterman has the best one (on burying poor ol' Spot)

and yes Kucinich does get a mention.

AP does seem to be biased though, I never see them printing any Jon Stewart material, I guess they don't have cable.

1. the haves and the really haves
The Democratic primary comes down to John Edwards (news - web sites) who is worth $50 million and John Kerry (news - web sites) who married a woman worth $500 million. So it's a classic battle between the haves and the really haves pretty funny
altough the one about kucinich got me upset as ussual no one takes him seriously :grr:

3. I don't think the Kucinich joke was a knock on DK, but on Bush
"Dennis Kucinich is campaigning in Hawaii. President Bush is not worried. He said he's sticking to campaigning right here in America."

The implication is clear that Bush is ignorant to the point that he doesn't realize that Hawaii IS a part of the United States.
