I could be wrong though.

Right but the thing I was responding to was that we vaguely remember in the 00's poo poo like "Arnold Schwarzenegger movies aren't getting shown on TBS because he's running for office" and "Fred Thompson was in episodes of Law and Order but we're airing different reruns because he's pretending to run for office while he takes a 12-month long standing-up nappy time". It was a thing, I think.

It was a thing, I think. Well, in those cycles, we didn't have the FEC Chairman saying things like quote:WASHINGTON — The leader of the Federal Election Commission, the agency charged with regulating the way political money is raised and spent, says she has largely given up hope of reining in abuses in the 2016 presidential campaign, which could generate a record $10 billion in spending. http://www.nytimes.com/2015/05/03/us/politics/fec-cant-curb-2016-election-abuse-commission-chief-says.html Basically the FEC is gridlocked to death and incapable of doing anything, because half of its members think that the scene in Talladega Nights where Will Ferrell's kids run around shouting "ANARCHY" is a good model of government. So basically it's the same problem as we have in Congress. Hieronymous Alloy fucked around with this message at 23:54 on Oct 13, 2015 |

It probably has to do with money. Hosting SNL is the same thing as going on a show like Colbert or The Daily Show. It's a live event and they're the guest, and, most importantly, they probably aren't getting paid to be there. Acting roles would involve royalty checks that could be construed as campaign contributions. There's probably ways around it if the candidate agreed, like they could hold the royalty money in escrow until after the election or something, but that's likely more of a hassle than just not airing particular reruns for a set period of time.

If anyone cares, noted pollster-that-exists Morning Consult has new numbers out. Morning Consult is two years old and has no track record, so take it with a truckload of salt. Dems: Clinton 54 Sanders 22 Chafee/O'Malley/Webb 1 Other 5 GOP Trump 34 Carson 20 Jeb! 9 Cruz/Rubio/Fiorina 5 Huckabee 4 Paul/Christie 3 Kasich 2 Also, on a more serious note, have a PPP poll of Pennsylvania Trump 24 Carson 23 Cruz/Fiorina 9 Jeb!/Christie 7 Rubio 6 Huckabee/Kasich 3 Former Pennsylvania Senator Rick Santorum 2 Gilmore/Paul 1 Graham/Jindal/Pataki 0 From that Pennsylvania poll, head to heads: Trump 60 Jeb! 31 Carson 52 Trump 38 Trump 47 Fiorina 43 Rubio 45 Trump 44

New FOXNEWS poll: http://www.foxnews.com/politics/interactive/2015/10/13/fox-news-poll-carson-giving-trump-run-for-his-money/    Take aways: Crazy gun chat has helped Carson greatly. Trump's numbers are stable. Still #1! Cruz and Rubio on the rise... Fiorina has nose dived. Jeb! is up a whole point. Montasque fucked around with this message at 00:38 on Oct 14, 2015 |

How many days til Trump turns on Carson? The only reason to play nice is to pull him in for a possible VP position. Something like "What's with all this Nazi stuff? Stop watching the History Channel, Ben. I'd be the best president of 2016, I'm not worried about the 1940s. You know what? I'll make America as good as it was in the 40s! Greatest generation, that's the Trump generation!" *Pivots to airport chat*
