Mike Huckabee on SNL Weekend Update

Gov. Mike Huckabee made a cameo appearance on Saturday Night Live last night, appearing on the Weekend Update segment as himself. The Huckabee SNL clip can be seen above. Riffing on the opinion that he is staying in the Republican race even though there is no chance he can win, Huckabee stays at the Weekend Update desk after the interview with him is finished.

Last night's show was the first new Saturday Night LIve show since November, when the writers' strike began.

You gotta give Huckabee credit for going on SNL to poke fun at himself. Though since he's a bass player, I almost expected him to sneak his way into the SNL house band and play a few tunes.
