SNL: Watch Democrats Dream About Better News Headlines In 2011

video
» 8 comments

Frosty the Snowman turned up on Saturday Night Live last night to reflect on the passing year and inspire hope for the new one. Democrats, he noted, are hoping the hardest, given that 2010 was so full of political losses. So he peered into the souls of some of Washington’s most prominent Dems to find out what headlines they’d like to see in 2011—like “WikiLeaks: John McCain a Muslim,” dreamt up by President Obama.

Obama also wished for a presidential bid by Sarah Palin in 2012, so as to make his reelection a lay-up.

Hillary Clinton was dreaming of the Oval Office as well, envisioning the headline, “Obama To Hillary: Let’s Switch Jobs.”

Outgoing Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi, however, wished for a headline that was both the funniest and unlikeliest: “Military To Go Exclusively Gay.” Yes, I’m saying that’s more unlikely that Batman and Joe Biden switching jobs.

Watch the NBC video below to see all the headlines that a Democrat could hope for.

    Fact: Granted you will see Sarah Palin in 2012! You bettcha!

  • Just4thefax

    Fact: I assume that there will be no less than 20 GOP contenders at the starting gate and all want some of the weak candidates that the democrats throw out to sacrifice at the slaughter! Even SNL sees this same fact in 2010 by the way they put out the nonstop democrats mocking acts!

  • TangledThorns

    The nervous laughs during the ‘Sarah Palin run for 2012′ part was interesting. I don’t think the audience agrees that Obama can beat Sarah.

  • dhg

    I now know what audience SNL is trying for,an audience that still thinks the Cookie Monster is funny.

    Speaks volumes…..
