Barack Obama had his 30-minutes … John McCain will now have his chance to shine on network TV, too.

John McCain is reportedly going to appear on "Saturday Night Live" tomorrow night. The Associated Press  reports that McCain’s aides are saying that the GOP presidential hopeful will halt campaigning in battleground states to make a last-minute appearance on NBC’s sketch comedy show. His appearance would come with just three days before Election Day. Two weeks ago, more than 14 million viewers tuned in to see Palin’s visit on "SNL." Click here to see the Palin’s "SNL" videos.

"Saturday Night Live" will air on NBC Saturday, Nov.1, at 11:30 PM ET/10:30 PM C. Actor Ben Affleck, a known democrat, is the guest host.

While suturing a cut on the hand of a 75 year old rancher, who’s hand was caught in the gate while working cattle, the doctor struck up a conversation with the old man. Eventually the topic got around to Sarah Palin and her bid for VP. The old rancher said, ‘Well, ya know, Palin is a ‘Post Turtle”. Not being familiar with the term, the doctor asked him what a ‘post turtle’ was. The old rancher said, ‘When you’re driving down a country road and you come across a fence post with a turtle balanced on top, that’s a ‘post turtle’. The old rancher saw the puzzled look on the doctor’s face so he continued to explain. ‘You know she didn’t get up there by herself, she doesn’t belong up there, and she doesn’t know what to do while she’s up there, and you just wonder what kind of jackass put her up there to begin with.

Actually he hosted the show once before. He played a very creepy character in one of the sketches. Maybe six years ago. I half expected them to re-run that show, along with the one Ralph Nader hosted, and the one that Al Gore hosted, now that they are in some sort of megapolitical phase of SNL. I will miss Amy Poehler and Tina Fey

Ok Ok I’m really nervous now. If John does well and funny on SNL can that turn this election around and can he win? Help very nervous in Canada!
