Both President Obama and Mitt Romney appeared in the opening segment to Wednesday night’s CMT Music Awards. In the pre-taped intro, co-hosts actress Kristen Bell and country singer Toby Keith campaign against each other over who will host the show — that’s where Obama and Romney come in.
“This is one of the toughest decisions I’ve had to make since I’ve been in office. But I think I’ve decided,” President Obama says from the Oval Office. Leaning on his desk, he says, “I want them both.”
“Boy, I thought the presidential election was a tough race, but it’s nothing compared to the politics at the CMT Music Awards,” Romney said, also proposing that the two co-host the show. “See, I just put two people back to work. You’re welcome, America.”
