Funnies: Candidates Who Win by Winning
A look at the best in late night political comedy.
Jan. 13, 2008 — -- A roundup of the late-night comics.
Bill Maher: This is a ridiculous election. If I hear this word "change" one more time, I'm gonna change the channel -- that's what I want to change.
Jay Leno: Not such good news for John Edwards. He came in third, proving yes -- there are two Americas, and neither one is voting for him.
Jon Stewart: I cannot get over Chuck Norris standing and endorsing Iowa winner Mike Huckabee... How many Total Gyms do you have to buy before Norris will throw down the endorsement?
David Letterman: Hillary Clinton won the New Hampshire primary last night. It was a surprising victory, and today she is denying that she used human growth hormone.
Leno: You can tell it was a Republican event. Do you see how they timed the candidate's speeches? Here, take a look at this... 'Answers are limited to one minute and 30 seconds each, and if the answer runs long, the candidates and everyone else will hear this sound [Hillary Clinton laughing].'
Stephen Colbert: Giuliani said, upon his second defeat, he said quote, 'We've lulled our opponents into a false sense of confidence.' Oh yes! Everything is going according to plan. Those fools! They think they can win by winning!
