"Jimmy McMillan" on SNL
SNL took on Jimmy "The rent is TOO DAMN high" this past weekend. We wouldn't be surprised if some of this skit was already written before the gubernatorial debate was over...
It's funny enough. But it points to the difficulty of parodying a process that has already successfully parodied itself.
NY Mag asked McMillan about the skit -- his response: "That put me over the top. It's over. This election is over."
Fox23 went to Brooklyn last week to follow McMillan. It found that he's pretty good at staying on message, not so great at math and that people in the neighborhood call him "Papa Smurf." Also, if elected he says he would turn the Governor's Mansion into a dojo.
And that bit about McMillan not paying rent? He told NYT last week that he hasn't paid rent for the last decade because he and his landlords are "like family."
