You could make cuts in the serious part, when they're talking about their performance as politicians...that's just kind of repeating information as opposed to being funny. It's an interesting touch to have one or two serious lines in a sketch, but when you go on and on, it starts to sound like a rant.

I also feel you could cut the "Flippy" joke, since that one's been used on SNL.

And/or John Kerry's wage/tax discussion with the waitress...although Democrats are known for raising the minumum wage and taxes, the connection made between them seems a little obscure, speaking as someone who is not well versed in economics (like the typical American, I'm sure.)

Strong lines:
"Try as hard as you want, Dubya, I don’t think you’ll be finding any weapons of mass destruction in the dessert menu."
"Ketchup boy"
