SNL: Mitt Romney drowns his election night sorrows in milk

"Darn it all to heck," Mitt Romney begins in "Saturday Night Live's" cold open, which imagines how the devout Mormon and unsuccessful presidential candidate might have spent election night -- without alcohol.

"Saturday Night Live's" cold open featured Jason Sudeikis as a rueful, unhappy Mitt Romney, drowning his sorrows the only way a straight-laced Mormon candidate can -- with milk. ”I still love you America, I do," Romney says, "but you’ve hurt my feelings very, very much.”

Looking out from the balcony of his suspiciously White House-like mansion, Romney downs carton after carton of milk, enduring frequent visits from his worried wife Ann and sons (all played by Taran Killam). "Have you been drinking? You smell like a dairy," a Romney son asks his father.

Even a sheepish Karl Rove puts in an appearance, still waiting on an Ohio win, and asking for another $300 million.
