2. Al Smith Dinner...very funny speech by Obama
McCain was good too. They both really had some bitingly funny lines about the campaign.

5. By an amazing coincidence I happened to catch it!
I happened to come into my room for a minute, thought I'd catch some TV for the duration and saw Obama's appearance at the dinner. It was wicked funny and fabulously sobering and sincere at the end. It'll be a massive hit on You Tube come tomorrow.

I was so pleased to know our next President will have such a great sense of humor. As my brothers would say (with respect) "One funny motherfucker". High praise indeed!

6. Obama and McCain were both FUNNY AS HELL. I hope a video of this shows up soon.
As much as I have come to hate McCain, I have to say it was good to see him actually look Barack in the eye and smile a real smile. Obviously, everyone there was having a ball.

14. McCain actually used to have a sense of humor
For the sake of his soul, I'm glad he's recovered a little of it.

7. In the words of most comics, "he killed" (did great!)
He was wildly cool and funny

15. Oh...My....God.....
does he write his own material?? He is so fucking funny he could have his own show! Not only do I love him, trust him, respect him and his family but he is so fucking funny in a John Stewart way, very unique.

17. A good thing this McCain didn't make it to any debates...
If people had seen more of this side of McCoached, things might be a little different.

Both speeches were hilarious. I could sense some steam being released as we head into the final stretch and the results are looking obvious.
