Campaign Humor

From Mike Allen's Playbook of June 26 on the Politico website:

DAVID LETTERMAN compares the candidates:

John McCain frequently consults with General David Petraeus.
Barack Obama frequently consults with Scarlett Johansson.

Barack Obama makes people think of JFK.
John McCain makes people think of AARP.

I'd call that equally insulting to both candidates. Come to think of it, didn't JFK "consult" with Marilyn Monroe and woo some mobster's moll in the White House?
