FALLON: Online advocates say that the delays and confusion over ballot counting wouldn't be a
problem if people voted on the Internet. Oh, that's a great idea. Sure, they can't handle punch cards,
but old people love the Internet. My grandfather is afraid of his answering machine!
FEY: When Al Gore realized that he still had a chance in Florida Tuesday, he called George W.
Bush at 3:30 in the morning to withdraw his concession, saying "Circumstances have changed." Bush
replied, "Unbelievable. Let me make sure I understand. You're taking back your concession?" Gore
then said, "Well, you don't have to be snippy." To which Bush replied, "Jeb has assured me we have
Florida." To which Gore responded, "Let me explain something. Your younger brother is not the
ultimate authority on this." To which Bush said, "You conceded. No take-backs. No do-overs." And
Gore was like, "I had my fingers crossed." Bush was all like, "I'm not trying to hear that, see!" And
Gore was like, "Oh no you didn't." Then Gore hung up and Bush totally Star 69-ed him and was like,
"I know where you're at. I got your number on my Caller ID." And now, Jimmy, they're like not
speaking, which is so awkward for me, cause I'm friends with both of them.
FALLON: That is so unfair of them to put you in that position.
FEY: I know, right? Back to you.
FALLON: In the final national tally, Al Gore finished with 49% of the vote, Bush with
48% and Ralph Nader with three percent. Pat Buchanan officially ended up with 0%
of the national vote, far exceeding all expectations.
FEY: Hillary Clinton's victory in the New York Senate race this week was greeted with disdain by
Senate Majority Leader Trent Lott, who warned that when she gets to the Senate, she'll just be "one
of one hundred." To which Hillary responded, "I'm used to being one of one hundred, I'm married to
Bill Clinton."
