SNL's Return

Returning for the first time since the writers strike, "Saturday Night Live" spared little time jumping into the presidential race.

The highlight was Mike Huckabee's cameo --- where he riffed on his own refusal to get out of the race.

Hillary Clinton, meanwhile, is urging supporters to watch another skit on "SNL" that mocked the media's light treatment of her chief rival, Barack Obama. She also got an assist from guest host Tina Fey, who all but endorsed her.
