Governor Palin looks prettier and more attactive than the other woman.
-
It was good to see Tina Fey back on SNL. As always she is believable with her characters.
-
This was just great fun! Excellent humor!
-
Tina Fey was incredible. Politics aside...Not only did she sound like her but she looked like her. She was dead on with the impersonation. Both "Sarah and Hillary" were quite funny and I bet Sarah herself probably got a chuckle too, after-all, it's not everyday that you get someone like Tina Fey to impersonate you. It was nice to have something to smile about in leu of the stock market, our 401K's loosing so much money the past months, looming layoffs in Rochester, NY, layoffs without the benefits of previous layoffs, the fall of our 100 year banks, etc. With all that people have to be concerned about, including their upcoming choice in November, it's good to have a light spot this was Saturday Night Live. Personally, I'm scared a lot of what lies ahead and whoever wins November's election with have such a mess on their hands that all of us should do our best to wish them luck and then pull together because, whoever does win will have an Everest to climb, without a rope.

Anyone who voted No to this Poll is either a complete d-bag republican with no sense of humor or a an absolute moron.
-
Voted yes, for the record but I am Republican generally (I go by candidate not party though most end up Republican). I thought it was hillarious. Anyone who's watched SNL for any length of time recognizes political satire and this was a divine moment. Kudos, it was a riot and I look forward to more.
-
who care, republican or democrat!
-
NO, IT'S JUST TIME TO MOVE ON. PALIN HAS TAKEN CRAP FROM THE PRESS FOR MONTHS. IT'S NOT FUNNY ANYMORE!!! I LIKE TINA FEY. I LOVE THE EPISODE WITH PALIN AND TINA BEFORE THE ELECTIONS,SEEMS NOW TINA'S A TRAIDER. NOW TO MAKE FUN OF HER????? OLD NEWS, . TINA JUST FOUND SOMETHING SHE'S GOOD AT AND GOING WITH THE UGLY PRESS. ENOUGH ALL READY LEAVE SARA ALONE!!!!!!

-
I watched it with my aunts uncles grammas grampas cuzins you get it, and we were all laughing! its not that we dont like sarah palin it was just funny!
-
We needed Tina Fey to do that parody. She was dead-on. We needed to laugh. Either that or cry!!
-
omg tina fey was head on being sarah palin. i remembered to
tape it and i keep playing that over and over again. i hope
through november she keeps up the fanastic job. -
i though tina had sarah paling down to a t. she is awesome and
i hope she keeps this up thru november. -
I think Tina Fey is Palin's twin sister
-
Now if the REAL Palin was as smart as Tina Fey! You gotta know that she copied YOU with the glasses, your ten times the babe and if Palin had the brains your little toe has she be considered educated. Love the show keep up the good work congrats on the awards
-
Sarah Palin in prettier than the mousey Tina Fey and yes Sarah Palin is no Tina Fey, thank goodness!!
-
Looks like Tina Fey has the dumbo ears that needed to be pinned back for the skit.
-
I think she looked like her, but I don't believe that is how Gov. Palin acts or speaks.
At least that skit was better than the NYT skit about her husband. -
Tina did America a public service by playing Sarah Palin. Bravo!
-
Fey was pretty funny, but people must be blind. Palin is waaay better looking than Fey. Fey has the biggest ears ever.
-
OH Come on ! If you don't think that the skit was right on the Money YOU MUST be a REPUBLICAN MAVRIC Yah Ya Bet Cha :~( SOUR GRAPES :(
-
Fey is perfect - but Palin in real life is scary and not fit to be president or even dog catcher -- were the Republicans asleep when McCain picked this vp running mate?
-
Sadly, Tina was better than the original! I can't wait till Saturday to see the next round of spoofs with her. I certainly hope to see the "it had to be the duckhuntin' accident" comment from SP.
-
Tina Fey, a sea of talents.
-
Incredible.... now this has turned into a Fey vs Palin thing????? Anyone thinking Palin isn't the sharpest crayon needs to check their own box
-
An SNL fan, Tina Fay's skit is the closest caricature, as well as, the funniest and poignant delivery I've seen in 20 years.
SNL never fails in its commentary on current events: "I'm just a heartbeat away from the presidency..." Merci Beaucoup. -
please, it is far too extreme. why not try someone who doesen't have such a chip on her shoulder about Palin, maybe then it will be funny. it would certainly be better than fey. and as for the loser who called me a d-bag, what are you so angry about, i thought you liberal idiots were the ones who are always saying to let free speach ring loud and clear, oh thats right, only when we agree with you. oh well. not this time. why don't you save some of that energy for really checking out obama. maybe you will see what is happening to the integrity of this country when people will seriously turn a blind eye on his stunts.
-
snl's ratings have been so bad lately, they will do anything to get viewers back their skits are old and over done. fey should have stayed away, this presidential stuff is only a bandaid for the inevitable.
-
i remember Tina Fey from Mean Girls. i didnt think she would look like Sarah at all!
-
Tina Fey is much prettier than Sarah Palin
-
With those ears Tina should do Obama. Yeah as for the dense minded person that is calling people names- what are you afraid of?
-
I am from Alaska and I know Palin in person!She like humor and she is the best ever woman, mom, friend, wife, and sister in Christ.I dont like propoganda.I trulybelieve that SHE have a big smile with pray ;0;0;0 smileandpray ;0about
-
Governor Palin looks prettier and more attactive than the other woman.
I am strongly agree! -
I would just like to see the 8% that didn't think Fey was great. What planet could they be from?
-
I THINK THE INSIDER ALWAYS GO INTO POLITICS, FOR GOD SAKE, YOUR SHOW IS SUPPOSED TO BE ENTERTAINMENT NOT POLITICS. I THINK LARA SPENCER ALWAYS LIKES TO BRING POLITICS INTO HER SHOW. WHAT'S THE MATTER, LARA? YOU DON'T HAVE ANY MORE TOPICS TO DISCUSS. I CAN TELL YOU DON'T LIKE GOVERNOR PALIN. ANOTHER HOLLYWEIRD LEFT WING. I HOPE SOMEBODY WILL SHUT ALL YOU LIBERALS MOUTH. HOW ABOUT YOUR WARDROBE, LARA? WHO PAID FOR IT, HUH?
-
What has happened to we Americans that we can't wait to shoot someone down and A woman running for office should be applauded instead of shot down by everyone hiding behind a computer.
-
The reason this skit was so popular was because of the accuracy! there is no doubt Tina did a great job copying Palin.
-
I think Sarah Palin is a much, much prettier woman than Tina Fey. I would also like to say that I hope, as promised by Tina Fey, that she will leave this world if Sarah Palin gets into office. So many other so called stars have made statements to that effect and none of them have ever kept their word.
-
i don't watch SNL very much,but i watched or recorded it eveytime she played palin. i thought she was great and looked just like palin.
-
Tina Fey did an EXCELLENT JOB!!!! I don't know why the OTHER SIDE (Republicans) don't realize that Sarah Palin is a mistake for VICE PRESIDENT!!! She needs to stay in Alaska. Sarah Palin DO NOT have a CLUE as to what the daily duties are for VP!!!
-
Seeing Tina Fey and Govenor Palin together on SNL recently was like they both were looking in a mirror. It was amazing.
I find it remarkable when Tina impersonates Govenor Palin so very well. She is hilarious. -
the first time I see tina fey in SNL,I thought she was sarah palin,because she looks so much like her
-
lets give it a break move on to more important things like people not being able to give their kids any thing for christmas or people not having any food to eat - that is worth talking about
-

Tina Fey is one the most hottest comedians and is very good in play a Sarah Paliin on the Saturday Night live show.
-
She is hilarious!...see more
-
I think that Tina Fey did a great job. She showed Palin as the incompetent airhead that she is. Now Palin is going around saying how the media was so evil to her. No, her mouth was her problem, everythime she opened it, she put her foot in her mouth
-
I think Tina Fey should let it go since the election is over - she has hurt Palin and her family enough.
-
Too many time she played Sarah Palin as a different person then the wonderful woman she really is.
-
sarah Palin is acting like a spoiled child, growup. If she can't take it don't di out. Exactly what did she think was going to happen when she showed up on the scene. She has flaunted her looks and body in exchange for the lack of knowledge.
-
Tina Fey is so much better looking, sweeter, kinder, genuine and decent. Palin is such a criminal lying fraud with no capability to do anything for the people anywhere unless she benefits most.
-
You are so write about that! I realy dislike her. All she does is spoil herself and leaves out the fact she is an irrisposible parent who can't pay enough attention to her kids to keep them from getting themselves knocked up!
-
Sarah Palin and husband Todd are wonderful parents. Anyone who can't see that is anti-family.
-
-
Humor is one thing on SNL, but leave the children out of it.
-
The double standard against Conservative FEMINIST Leaders is shocking. The way that Palin's humor was stretched out of proportion is shocking. The message is clear. Hollywood Aristocrats demand that we all think the same, as obedient slaves to socialism. If you do not, they will hurt your family and you. It is so clear by the huge amount of negative things they manufactured and said about Palin. She got into politics to remove corrupt politicians from office, and that makes a lot of people afraid of her. She balanced Alaska's budget, and created a lock box for emergencies. She even fired a states trooper who abused his wife, and threatened to murder her. So much for the Women's Issues thanks to fakes in the entertainment industry. If you agree with me and not with them, well, your opinion must sit at the back of the blog and you may not have a job in this town.
-
I think she is hilarious and just like Sarah Palin, plus you can't blame her, I'm sure that she didn,t write the jokes, the writers did. DUH! Oh! And I would like it if we could see Tina Fey in hundreds of other Palin Sketches, even though the election is over, and HEY TINA my name is Tina to, and I'm your biggest 11 year old fan if you read this.
-
I HOPE TO SEE SARAH PALIN AS PRESIDENT ONE DAY. PEOPLE SHOULD STOP ATTACKING HER AND HER FAMILY. I LOOK UP TO HER. SHE IS A STRONG LADY, IN THIS SO CALLED MANS WORLD. IT ANGERS ME TO SEE EVERYONE SLANDERING HER. I SEE HER AS A TRUE AMERICAN!!!
-
I didn't find her funny at all - I thought she was insulting & Tina Fey has lost a viewer for 30 Rock. But then I haven't found anything funny about SNL since the very early days.
-
i feel that she did an excellent job and was still respectfull while doing so,it was all in fun and sarah palin should feel honered to be lucky to have tina fay play her
-
It's funny Sarah Palin can appear on SNL and bring the rating higher than they've been in a long time by acting like Tina Fey. Can Tina Fey govern the State of Alaska.
-
I find the whole thing distasteful and humiliating. Sarah Palin was treated with no respect through out this whole campaign. Fun is fun but Tina Fey should be ashamed of herself for using Sarah Palin as a gimmick to gain fame for herself. She also aided the press in helping to totally rip Sarah to pieces, and ruin her chances to become the first female president.
-
I think Sarah Paline is awesome. She is such a great role for women. What ever ever having respect to other people. It is so sad that are United States is becoming. I don't think our fore father would be happy the way our country has turned into, we sure are not united, we are just a bunch of hypocrites. Look at your own lives before you start judging other people when you are know better youself
-
tina is not nearly as pretty but with no boobs and her scared face how could shebe? No big deal, tina is on her way out now, SNL hasn't been funny for 20 years, and tina is part of the worst rated cast ever. oh yeah, tina nice pic of you and the DONKEY, that was sick! you should be ashamed of yourself.
-
Tina was right on the mark. I hope to see more of her Palin. Sarah herself can stay in Alaska
-
Where would Sarah be without Fey? Oh wait a minute. I mean where would Fey be without Palin.That's more like it1
-
When Sarah appeared on SNL the show had record viewer numbers. I would say the interest was entirely because of Sarah Palin not Fey. Palin is a super-star and the intelligent majority are fascinated by Palin.
-
Sarah is a Beautiful woman. Tina NOT pretty, but wants to look like Sarah since she kept wanting to play Sarah on SNL.
-
it waz iight
-
it waz tight i guess naw it waz iight
-
Sarah Palin is a beautiful woman, Tina couldn't hold a candle to her beauty, and just where would Tina be if not for Sarah,
and can Hillary get any uglier? boy Clinton sure has done a # on her, and those pant suits she wears, looks like something from Goodwill. -
Though I wasn't a Palin supporter, I think that Fey's motive was clearly more politcal than comedic, and because it was so, I didn't care for how she treated Palin and Palin's daughter. It spoke of Fey's lack of personal and artistic integrity, and her actions were contrary to a truly pro-feminist stance. Fey could have gone easier on Palin and would have been just as funny ... disappointing.
-
I have long wondered why Cojo gets any time on your show - he is an idiot.......I will now turn you off whenever he is on. Who's relative is he anyway?
-
Tina Fey looks ,talks and acts just like Sara palin. I think she did a great job of impersonating Sara Palin.
-
Gov. Palin did not deserve the riducule from SNL. Gov. Pailin is a woman to be admired and to be mocked by Tina Fey was unjust. Did you ever hear of Karma?

-
umm hello tina fey is wayyyyy better
-
she was even better!!
-
It would be acceptable if it hadn't been so slanted and unlike what she really stands for.
-
i loved every min of it i love tina fey and Amy P
-
It was the funniest thing I have saw in along time.. I love HULU for letting me be able to watch it again and again...see more
-
i tho0ght that her impersonation was insane!!! (in a good way) I mean there was one time where i asked my dad I was like Sarah Palin is so funny! hes like thats Tina Fey!!! All of the 13% of you that thjink otherwise u guys are effin crazy!!!!1
-
It is terrible how they pulled Sarah down. Never gave anyone a chance to see the real Sarah. I hate when people make money on degrading another.
-
The first time I saw Sarah on TV, my first thought was, "She looks just like Tina Fey! I know it won't be long before we'll see her playing that part on SNL!!"
-
Govern Palin is better looking ... she doesn't have Tina Fey's big Dumbo ears....and little beaty little eyes. Palin is just so much prettier
-
Tina Fey hit the nail on the head with her portrayal of Palin. Great comic relief - she has a job - and that is to be funny - you can't fault her for doing her job well. We, the people, have made fun of politicians for decades and I don't see any end to that in the near future. It was fate such a juicy role fell in Fey's lap - I applaud her for running with it. She is a good actress - I only wish our politicians were as good at their jobs.
-
Palin is is not smart enough but could B in Playboy because that takes no brains, she would sell a lots of magazines.
-
that was so funny
-
no baecause i dont like her she,s ugly as ma wat the hell u guy,s think of her

Bristol Palin landed a role on "The Secret Life of the American Teenager", do you think she will be a good actress?
