I didn’t stay up for Weekend Update on Saturday Night Live this weekend… After joking a few times that Mike Huckabee would make a good guest host for the Tonight Show. Well, this weekend, Huckabee appeared behind the Weekend Update news desk, asserting that he didn’t know what “mathematically impossible” meant and that he had really planned on picking up the superdelegates… that anchor Seth Myers regretted to inform him were only in the Democratic primary.

Maybe Huckabee can follow in Dennis Miller’s footsteps. As I said a little while back, Mike Huckabee has a bright future, but it doesn’t involve the Oval Office in 2008.

Was it some stupid FCC “equal time” rule that prevented SNL from showing the time John McCain hosted the show? (Transcripts here.) It would have made good filler during the writer’s strike, and he had some good moments – McCain singing Streisand in particular.
