SNL Takes On Democratic Debate [VIDEO]

Deadspin reviews:

After months of separated-at-birth? jokes about Larry David and Vermont Senator and Democratic presidential hopeful Bernie Sanders, Saturday Night Live made the dream come true with its cold open last night, a recreation of the Anderson Cooper-moderated, CNN hosted Democratic candidates’ debate. Alec Baldwin was on hand to play ex-Senator Jim Webb, along with Kate McKinnon as her increasingly refined Hillary Clinton (“I think you’re really gonna like the Hillary Clinton that my team and I have created for this debate”), declaring that this time around, “I get to be the cool black guy!” But the opener belonged to David, who was dead-on hilarious even without the static-electricity-fried flying hair that’s a Sanders trademark. “I’m hungry, but I’m good,” David-as-Sanders said, “and if you don’t mind, I’m going to dial it right up to a ten. We’re doomed!”
