Fun links on the US elections

The call from a fake Sarkozy: A prank on Sarah Palin [thanks to Jatkesha for the e-mail pointer].

    Here's another Saturday Night live video - a backstage video with John and Cindy McCain. Listen to John McCain sing with around 2:30 left in the video.

    And oh yeah. John McCain's double maverick strategy in SNL is also worth a look.
