Nov. 8, 2009 — -- Here's a roundup of the late-night comics.

Jay Leno: Well, the Democratic Party has a new slogan: What happened?!

Stephen Colbert: For the White House Halloween Party, the first lady dressed as a leopard and the president went as an American citizen [shows president in regular clothing]. Not bad. And as a pretty convincing Chewbacca: Joe Biden [shows Chewbacca character standing behind President Obama].

Jimmy Fallon: Last week, economists were saying that the recession is finally over, but this week, all of the economists were laid off.

Video of NY-23 Conservative Party Candidate Doug Hoffman: The way it should be is that the government works for us (long pause) -- it's not the other way around -- that we work for the government.

Jon Stewart:That wasn't so much a speech as what you'd get if you forced Hoffman to chug a bottle of cough syrup, spun him around three times and asked him to recite what he remebered from Glenn Beck's show last night.

Jimmy Kimmel:A lot of people have been noticing that President Obama is getting very skinny. Look at this. There he is coming out of the basketball gym. And he is thin. They say if it wasn't for his ears he'd weigh less than 100 pounds.

Craig Ferguson: The biggest race was for governor of New Jersey. New Jersey voters had a tough choice to make. They had to choose between "dat guy with dat thing" and "dat udder guy." Whaddaya gonna do?
