"What if the president forgets to run?" lmao

Class act with a great sense of humor. How I miss those days.

This skit is hilarious, and MCain's comedy timing was perfect! He's so cute in this one.

Why hasn't the youtube algorithm recommended this? This is the funniest thing I've seen in years and I had to find it all by myself lol

Haha, I always thought of this sketch when he ran for 2008, I'm surprised not that many people mentioned it

Rest in peace Maverick

Ironically Carter is still alive so we will need a genetically modified McCain for a contest in 2020

Rest in Peace to both John McCain and Tim Russert. Can't believe Tim's already been gone for ten years.

He was asked if he's goin' to run in '08 and he denied it. That became a reality! HAHAHA!

I almost woke up my wife laughing so hard.

Both are passed away now. 😔 This is such a good characterization of Tim Russert, too. I miss him.

I remember watching this when it aired and fell in love with Darrell Hammond. I didn't even know who he was imitating and hated politics but it was still hilarious. That's good comedy!

From 4:58, to 5:03, now it's the opposite, "Will a Relevtily Young Jimmy Carter run in 2028 aginast a reanimated John MacCain Zombie?"

John McCain was a wonderful an awesome human being. His family should have been proud of him.

Wow this sketched has aged weirdly in the past several years since!

If only 1/2 of our politicians had 1/2 of this man's sense of humor, we'd have a better country.

Dead on impression of Tim Russert

Thanks for running this old show last night, SNL/NBC. It was quite fitting on this day where we watched his commemoration ceremony at the National Cathedral in the early AM. RIP, Senator McCain. You were one of the good ones.

The guy playing McCain is so accurate I wonder who he is

John McCain is a great man and a true American hero!!!!!

“But if you get elected, would you serve?” Totally got me HAHA

RIP Senator McCain

Well outside of running for president of Iraq Tim was this way but in a great way RIP Tim & John 😂😭😇💚

God I miss John McCain ❤️ bless you 🙏

Genetic engineering where are you? We needed you almost two weeks ago! R.I.P. John.

John McCain played this perfectly.

Wow, this one is great.

RIP Sen McCain.

RIP Brother McCain. The value of these sketches went up because you are no longer with us. The force will be with you always.

Rest in peace Tim Russert. That was the time when we had trust in the Sunday morning talking heads. At least they were more objective than they are now. Tim was a liberal, but, you usually couldn't tell.

I'll miss McCain his act always made me laugh

And here it is June of 2024 and Jimmy Carter is still with us. John McCain, not so much.

RIP Jhon mccain

The same people that said this guy had 1 foot in the grave are now saying that Joe Biden is perfectly healthy, sharp as ever. Oh brother.

As of today if John McCain runs in 2028 he has my vote! ✅

This was hilarious! RIP John McCain

The good men pass on and the orange abominations stick around. Too bad.

Tim Russent vs John McCain John McCain WON!!! 😂😜🤪😆🤣 That's what I call intelligent guy, with cunning attention to detail!!! RIP John McCain!!! You are deeply missed!!! Republican is lost without YOU literally!!!

He said no for 2008🤣

RIP to a great man, who picked a terrible running mate and is still a billion times better than the ass clown currently in the white house.

4:42 "I'll be ninety." No; no you won't.

Funnily enough jimmy carter’s still alive

Lmao. I can't see Trump ever doing something like this. He'd just yell about how biased the media is against him and throw a temper tantrum.

Getting close(r) to 2028. And it may actually be a Carter/Zombie McCain race.

😪

God bless him. Wish he was president now instead of lunatic Trump.

I don't know who Tim Russert is, but now I really want to punch him. Ah, McCain. Your death has revitalized this country as we remember what a TRUE Patriot who honestly loves America looks like. One who does not back down to evil, one who stands up for what our country stands FOR. Democracy, not Despots. Courage, not Cowardice, remembering what it feels like to be proud to be an American. You caused a BIG ripple and changes will be coming soon. Did you know, as you were dying, just how much you would be serving your country one last time? I hope so. I think so.

Both are passed away now. 😔 This is such a good characterization of Tim Russert, too. I miss him.
