									"The toxic chemical Ricin 
									was discovered in the U.S. Capitol this 
									week. Even more bad news — it's beating 
									Dennis Kucinich in the polls." — Craig 
									Kilborn 
									"Congratulations to Senator John 
									Kerry — the big winner in yesterday’s 
									primary. Won five out of seven. I just hope 
									all these victories don't give Kerry a big 
									head." —Jay Leno 
									"John Edwards won his home state of South 
									Carolina. He said last night again there are 
									really two Americas and he wants to create 
									just one America. And the Republicans said 
									that's fine with us as long as there is 
									still a first class section." —Jay Leno 
									"Because of poor results at the primaries 
									last night, Senator Joe Lieberman will be 
									dropping out of the race. Earlier today, he 
									broke the news to his supporter." —David 
									Letterman 
									"This past weekend was tough on a lot of 
									the candidates. John Edwards got caught 
									trying to bring a pen knife through airport 
									security. Wesley Clark's motorcade got 
									stopped for speeding in Oklahoma. And Dennis 
									Kucinich's campaign got cited for 
									loitering." —Jay Leno 
									"Howard Dean got under 10 percent in 
									South Carolina, Missouri and Oklahoma. So 
									that Al Gore endorsement is really starting 
									to kick in now." —Jay Leno 
									"Presidential candidate Howard Dean was 
									at a fish market in Seattle catching fish 
									and he did so well, next week he starts full 
									time." —David Letterman 
									"If Howard Dean is still limping along, 
									other campaigns have collapsed with the last 
									sign of Joementum fading. Connecticut 
									Senator Joe Lieberman, who was banking 
									everything on, and I kid you not, a strong 
									showing in Delaware, took last night's 0-7 
									performance as a sign that the game was 
									finally over." —Jon Stewart 
									"Yesterday after performing poorly in all 
									of the primaries, Senator Joe Lieberman 
									decided to drop out of the race. ... When 
									asked about it, he said I knew I was in 
									trouble when the Jewish guy in North Dakota 
									didn't vote for me." —Conan O'Brien 
									"Joe Lieberman has dropped out of the 
									race for president. You know if Joe had 
									raised just $10 million more, he could have 
									gotten his ass kicked for two more months." 
									—Craig Kilborn 
									"President Bush has started to campaign 
									on the accomplishments of his 
									administration. Bin Laden’s been forced into 
									hiding, Saddam Hussein is being 
									interrogated, Janet Jackson is under 
									investigation. "We'll get to the bottom of 
									this!" —Jay Leno 
									"President Bush released his new $2.4 
									trillion federal budget. It has two parts: 
									smoke and mirrors." —Jay Leno 
									"They say Bush's popularity is falling so 
									fast, his new secret service codename is 
									'Howard Dean.'" —Jay Leno 
									 
									"President Bush's approval rating is now 
									down under 50 percent. So now what he's 
									going to have to do is let Saddam go so we 
									can capture him again." —David Letterman 
									"Here's something frightening — in 
									Washington yesterday, three senate buildings 
									were shut down after a white powdery 
									substance tested positive for Ricin. At 
									first they thought it just was John Kerry’s 
									Botox delivery." —Jay Leno 
									"It seems the Ricin was found in the 
									office of Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist. 
									Police believe now that the person who sent 
									it is someone who has a grudge against 
									Senate Republicans. So now they're looking 
									for a gay middle class couple with no health 
									care." —Jay Leno 
									"Because of this Ricin poison scare 
									yesterday, the Senate postponed all voting. 
									You see this has a ripple effect on the 
									economy because when politicians can't vote, 
									oil companies, drug companies, tobacco 
									companies can't get the money. That means 
									that bartenders and hookers all suffer." 
									—Jay Leno 
									"John Kerry appears to be the front 
									runner. Do you know the name of Kerry's bus? 
									It's the Real Deal Express, that's the name 
									of his campaign bus. Do you know the name of 
									Dennis Kucinich's bus? Greyhound." —Jay Leno 
									"Wesley Clark is bringing an Army veteran 
									on the campaign trail who saved his life in 
									Vietnam. However, Clark's plan might 
									backfire since the man is John Kerry." 
									—Conan O'Brien 
									"Kucinich is not doing well. In fact, 
									even in Florida today, people said they 
									wouldn't vote for Kucinich even by mistake." 
									—Jay Leno 
									"In South Carolina, Senator John Edwards 
									won handily, fulfilling his promise to win 
									every state he was born in." —Jon Stewart 
									"President Bush has appointed a 
									commission to answer one big question about 
									pre-war Iraq: How did our oil get under 
									their sand?" —Craig Kilborn 
									"This Iraqi intelligence scandal is 
									growing. Americans are asking, 'What did 
									President Bush not know?' and 'When did he 
									mispronounce it?'" —Craig Kilborn 
									"Bush admitted that his pre-war 
									intelligence wasn't what it should have 
									been. We knew that when we elected him!" 
									—Jay Leno 
									"We have to tape this show around 6 
									o'clock, 6:30, so we're not positive of the 
									exact results but I really can confidently 
									predict the following: today, voters in 
									seven states from North Dakota to New Mexico 
									humored Joe Lieberman, ignored Dennis 
									Kucinich, reminisced about Howard Dean, and 
									admired Clark's hussle, but still found him 
									too creepy." —Jon Stewart 
									"How many saw the big Super Bowl halftime 
									show? You know, it's like turning into a 
									thing now. ... President Bush has now formed 
									a Department of Wardrobe Security." —David 
									Letterman 
									"You know who was really mad about that 
									whole incident? President Bush, he was very 
									upset. In fact, today, he accused Janet 
									Jackson of having weapons of mass arousal." 
									—Jay Leno 
									"It was quite a Superbowl show, if you 
									think about it. There was a streaker, Janet 
									Jackson's breast was exposed and then Kid 
									Rock wore an American flag as a poncho. You 
									know, I'm surprised John Ashcroft's head 
									didn't explode." —Jay Leno 
									"Janet Jackson is being very contrite and 
									she's pretending to apologize to everyone 
									who pretended to be offended. I think that 
									works out. But now the official explanation 
									is 'wardrobe malfunction.' She's blaming the 
									whole thing on 'wardrobe malfunction.' 
									Former President Clinton is thinking, why 
									didn't I think of that?" —David Letterman 
									"I don't think President Bush is getting 
									this situation. He said, 'If we don't set 
									standards of decency, the nipples have 
									won.'" —Craig Kilborn 
									"Yesterday on MSNBC, televangelist Pat 
									Robertson said the reason Democrats are 
									still competitive in national elections, is 
									that, and this is his quote, "African 
									Americans don't cotton to the idea of voting 
									for Republicans”. Maybe that’s because 
									Republicans like Pat Robertson keep using 
									'cotton' as a verb!" —Jay Leno 
									"The former California governor Gray 
									Davis has got a new job. He's going to guest 
									star on the CBS show 'Yes, Dear' next month. 
									Let me tell you, you see, Gray Davis is very 
									clever. You see, I know what Gray Davis is 
									doing. He's going to become a famous actor, 
									get back into politics, and beat Arnold at 
									his own game." —Jay Leno 
									"Today is Groundhog's Day. President Bush 
									looked over at his shadow and saw John 
									Kerry." —Jay Leno 
									"On Groundhog Day, the old timers think 
									they can predict whether it's going to be an 
									early spring or six more weeks of winter by 
									whether or not the groundhog sees his 
									shadow, or, as President Bush calls it, 
									'reliable intelligence.'" —Jay Leno 
									"The chairman of the FCC announced he's 
									launching an immediate and swift 
									investigation into what they're calling 
									'Nipplegate.' ... We still have to wait 
									until next year to find out why we went to 
									war with Iraq, but we'll find out what 
									happened with (Janet Jackson's) breast 
									probably in 48 hours." —Jay Leno 
									"During testimony before the Senate Armed 
									Services Committee former U.S. Chief Weapons 
									Inspector David Kay defended President Bush 
									for saying Iraq had weapons of mass 
									destruction. Kay blamed the 'intelligence 
									community.' And he doesn't want anybody 
									confusing Bush with the intelligence 
									community. I think we're okay there." —Jay 
									Leno 
									"A spokesman for the military said today 
									they expect to catch Osama bin Laden this 
									year. I understand they're shooting for the 
									first week November." —Jay Leno 
									"After the game, President 
									George Bush calls the 
									winning team, he calls the Patriots and 
									listen to this, former President Clinton 
									called Janet Jackson." —David Letterman 
									"Poor Al Sharpton, he only got 345 votes 
									total in the New Hampshire primary. Here's a 
									tip Al, when you're driving around the small 
									white, conservative states, turn down the 
									bass." —Bill Maher
