Barack Obama plays jokester in chief on 'SNL'

  • "Saturday Night Live" looked more like "Meet the Press" last night, with NBC anchorman Brian Williams as host - and a surprise appearance by Sen. Barack Obama.

    The Democratic presidential candidate made his cameo in the opening skit as a guest to a Halloween costume party thrown by Bill and Hillary Clinton.

    While Joe Biden masqueraded as SpongeBob SquarePants and Hillary played a bride, Obama was dressed up as Barack Obama. "I have nothing to hide," he said, after removing his own rubber mask. "I enjoy being myself. I'm not going to change who I am just because it's Halloween."
