When it comes down to who is funnier (leave your politics out of it and search your hear ilPad) we're talking about a purely subjective matter and I personally have to go with Baldwin. I think Martin was also hilarious.

Another all time great host is Walken.
It has nothing to do with politics. I just don't think he is entertaining. I didn't like any of his movies or any of the SNL stuff before I learned of his politics.

BTW, I haven't liked SNL since the Eddie Murphy years.
