Jay Leno, "The Tonight Show," on Tuesday's presidential debate: "The town-hall format is John McCain's favorite, as opposed to Barack Obama's favorite way - Sermon on the Mount."
David Letterman, "Late Show with David Letterman": "Are you excited about Sarah Palin? Well, yesterday she referred to Afghanistan as our neighboring country. Apparently, she can see bin Laden's cave from her house."
Bill Maher, "Real Time with Bill Maher": "Even though (Palin) did well in the debate last (week), McCain is still sinking in the polls. He's getting desperate. His new campaign slogan is, 'McCain: The White Obama.'"
Comedy writer Janice Hough: "John McCain pulled his campaign out of Michigan last week. So much for all those nay-sayers who claim he doesn't have an exit strategy."
Seth Meyers, "Saturday Night Live": "The House on Friday passed the $700 billion Wall Street bailout package. President Bush then signed the bill into law after consulting with his economic advisers, M.C. Hammer, Ed McMahon and Willie Nelson."
Comedy writer Jim Barach: "President Bush says that the economic bailout saved the country from painful and lasting damage. In other words, his legacy."
Comedy writer Doug Austen: "Bruce Springsteen and Billy Joel are teaming up for a concert to benefit Barack Obama. Tickets start at $500. Unfortunately, at those prices only Republicans can afford to attend."
