Comedians' View of the U.S. Election Campaign WASHINGT0N (Reuters) - With the U.S. presidential election campaign under way, late-night comedy television show hosts are taking a humorous look at the candidates. Here are some lines broadcast on Monday: NBC's "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno": "President Bush (news - web sites) was out touting his economic record in Ohio last week. Now this is a state that lost 225,000 jobs since Bush took office. If Bush wants to tout his record he should do it somewhere where the Bush economy has actually created jobs, like India or Thailand or China." "John Kerry (news - web sites) is claiming that leaders of other countries have told him they hope he defeats President Bush in November. President Bush is now challenging John Kerry to name those foreign leaders. That's a first, Bush challenging anyone to name a foreign leader." "John Kerry said today he wants to debate President Bush once a month. Hey good luck, if Bush couldn't make it to the National Guard once a month, he's not going to show up for this." CBS' "The Late Show with David Letterman": "The presidential campaign is really heating up. George Bush, his campaign is really doing much, much better, and he's shot right up in the polls since he captured Martha Stewart (news - web sites)." "John Kerry says that foreign leaders want him to be president, but that he can't name the foreign leaders. That's all right, President Bush can't name them either."
