A look at the best in late night political comedy.
March 16, 2008 — -- A roundup of the late-night comics.
Late Show
David Letterman: Did you happen to see the press conference? Very dramatic, Elliot Spitzer was there. He had yellow crime scene tape draped around his pants. It was crazy.
The Tonight Show
Jay Leno: In the world of sports, the NBA's Houston Rockets won their 20th game in a row. Yeah, and today Geraldine Ferraro said the only reason they are winning is because they're black.
Jimmy Kimmel Live
Jimmy Kimmel: Elliot Spitzer is set to leave office on Monday, which means hooker party at the governor's mansion this weekend.
Late Show
Letterman: Spitzer was on Hillary Clinton's vice president list, possible running mate. Boy, she can pick 'em, can't she?
The Colbert Report
Stephen Colbert: Meanwhile, on to the Republican side. John McCain has wrapped up the Republican nomination. He's doing a little fund-raising -- might cruise over to Europe to shore up his foreign policy credentials. Or, he might just stick by the pool and angrily sip a daiquiri. Back to the Democrats: Barack Obama is a secret Muslim!
The Tonight Show
Leno: They're talking about a re-vote primary where people would mail in their ballots. Oh, that's a great idea. So you'd combine the reliability of people in Florida who count the ballots with the efficiency of the post office. What could go wrong there?
