In an interview conducted just this morning, Vice Presidential hopeful Sarah Palin revealed that she will, after weeks of rumors and hearsay, in fact be appearing on "Saturday Night Live" this weekend.

"I don’t know what they have lined up for us," Palin said on the Neal Boortz radio show. "I haven't seen the script. I haven't even been hinted at what that script will say."

She says there is an important reason behind her heading to the hit sketch show.

"I just want to be there to show Americans that we’ll rise above the political shots we take because we’re in this doing serious business for serious challenges that face the good American people. That’s why we’re campaigning and working hard ... and we can do that even through a skit or two on 'Saturday Night Live.'"

  • Boring performance. She's supposed to be so good on the stump with a prepared speech written for her, but she didn't bring any energy or fun to SNL. Pretty much of a dud. In contrast, McCain was very funny and energetic on Letterman.

  • Don't watch SNL the night Palin is on. Boycott the scum.

    • I love all of the Palin fans posting in here. (Whisper whisper, they still think bush was a good president and have the bumper stickers to prove it.)

  • The candidates in general are already a SNL sketch. Too bad it's not going to be a funny one once one of them is elected!

  • After watching the insider show it is obvious the editors are voting for the Junior Senator. Very misleading teaser stating that Gov. Palins' "own supporters booed" at her rally today. They were booing B.O. and not Palin. Pathetic on your part!!!!

  • LawrencS2, at the risk of coming off as pedantic, I suggest you brush up on your elementary school grammar lessons. (missing punctuation, incorrect uses of your/you're, etc). I know you want to get up on your soapbox, and consider your post clever,...

    • I am not writing a book here. I'm simply typing on a keyboard and not worried about editing it. It's not like this is my website or blog.

      In my opinion Sarah Palin will do a great job in the event she becomes the new VP.

  • It's funny how most of America has ripped apart someone they don't know and a place the majority has never been to let alone learned about. Sarah Palin has done allot of great things for Alaska and for the U.S. Maybe you should educate yourselves...

  • LOL, it's very funny to hear nobody's talk about someone they do not know. Now let me explain something to you children. I'm not saying I agree or disagree with the position of Sarah Palin, What I'm saying is your childish comments and acts are...

  • I suspect she'll have a lot of fun with it. While I wouldn't agree 100% with any politician, I think she's going to be our first female President. And, I think she would do a hell of a good job.

  • That's great. I hope SNL hires her. That's where she belongs, as a great character in a comic setting. Get her out of politics where she is so distructive.

  • I know Sarah well. This is perfect for her. All she ever wanted was to be famous. Too bad she doesn't understand that people are laughing at her and not with her.
    I will not watch the program, and have emailed Lorne Michaels at NBC with that...
