According to the Political Ticker blog, John McCain is going to appear on this weekend’s Saturday Night Live, where he’s been a favorite guest over the years. I don’t know how effective appearances like this can be at this point in the race—or any other point, for that matter—but when you’ve got an opponent who’s spending his Brewster’s Millions* on primetime specials and ads in videogames, it makes sense to grab the national media you can. And it draws you a bigger crowd than doing a rally in Ohio at 11:30 p.m. E.T.
