Politics: Is Saturday Night Live Ready?

Instead of rehashing what everyone else is saying about John Kerry's "Global Test" gaff, or the annoyed look from Bush, I'd rather look at the possibilities...

Can you envision a Saturday Night Live debate skit, where the actor portraying Kerry, mentions a global test? He could have a sample scantron form, and some multiple choice questions at the ready.

"Who's responsible for global warming? A) George Bush; B) Dick Cheney; C) A and B."

"Who's responsible for all the world's problems? A) George Bush; B) Dick Cheney; C) A and B."

"Who are the right candidates to fix all the world's problems? A) John Kerry; B) John Edwards; C) A and B."

"We consider a 70% score to be passing; however, we may consider grading on a curve. Some of the countries most victimized by this Bush Administration, will receive a 15% bonus."

SNL could get jiggy with the Kerry hand movements and his verbosity.

On Bush? They have that down. I would envision a very repetitive, "hard work," and "wrong this, wrong that, wrong the other thing" comments. Of course, mispronouncing as many words as possible. (2000's "Strategery" is still part of my vocabulary!)
