Mike Huckabee followed in the steps of Barack Obama last night, appearing in a sketch on NBC's Saturday Night Live. CNN has an article on their site detailing the appearance, in which Huckabee commented that he would not overstay his welcome in the election and then humorously stayed on the show far beyond his cue to leave.
Earlier on in the year when Obama appeared on the sketch comedy show, he arrived in costume as himself to a halloween party hosted by "Hillary Clinton". Obama's appearance was very brief, but the sketch was pretty hilarious as well.
I wonder if these appearances are attempts to signal to the American public that Huckabee and Obama are the "feel good" candidates for their respective parties. While I can't decide who made the better appearance just yet, I hope to make this a fair fight by Hillary Clinton and John McCain joining in on the fun. Remember, candidates, a few laughs can go a long way.
Below are video clips of the Obama and Huckabee appearances for those who didn't catch them. Check them out, the guys held their own against such SNL veterans as Amy Poehler and Seth Meyers.
