US election humour

It's time for a round-up of the best election humour so far. Stepping back to pre-Convention days, this flow-chart gives a useful look inside the mind of Dick Cheney. This SNL sketch is quite amusing; I like the idea of the Republican ad voiceover man whose voice drips with sarcasm even in normal conversation. Jon Stewart skewers some GOP hypocrisy in this clip. And here you can watch David Letterman blasting McCain's no-show on his programme. (Surely McCain's 'suspension' of his campaign will backfire?)

And finally, to demonstrate this blog's entirely non-partisan nature, here is some gentle ribbing of Barack Obama's rhetoric, courtesy of The Onion, under the headline Obama Modifies 'Yes We Can' Message To Exclude Area Loser.
