Did not Sen. Fraken portray the late senator for IL, Paul Simon at times through the years, especially when Mr. Simon made a run for the presidency? Or am I completely mistaken on this, as I am on many things.

Shane, you are correct. Here's a link to the transcript of the skit you recalled, which includes a photo of now-Senator Franken's portrayal of then-Senator Simon.

thanks methuselah, that was some fine reading. What a fun cast ... I think Apollo Creed as Jesse Jackson would have been great, it read great and I'm sure seeing it again would be great.
