Hillary Clinton had cited the "Saturday Night Live" skit Downey had written to complain about her treatment by moderators Brian Williams and Tim Russert. "In the last several debates I seem to get the first question all the time," she said. "I don't mind. I'll be happy to field it. I just find curious if anybody saw 'Saturday Night Live,' maybe we should ask Barack if he's comfortable and needs another pillow." Downey, an original "Saturday Night Live" writer, created the skit about an Obama-Clinton debate, which featured a lovestruck press corps fawning over Barack Obama Still, Downey can't help but notice how many people in the news media have been seduced by the Illinois senator. The Clinton campaign has expressed frustration that it is getting a tougher ride from the press. while treating Clinton as an annoyance in their way. A fictional Campbell Brown fanned herself in excitement after an Obama answer, while a John King impersonator suggested he had "nailed it".
