This past weekend Tina Fey appeared with John McCain on SNL and true to form .. had us laughing in the aisles. John’s quick comedic timing and willingness to poke fun at himself and his campaign showed his softer side. His wife Cindy also appeared briefly.
Tina continued portrayal of the republican VP candidate was impeccable .. making us wonder if she will continue to play the role if Sarah continues to stay in the media spotlight after the election. More importantly .. will Tina’s impersonation impact Sarah’s decision not to continue pursuit of a more visible role.
Sarah Vowell, in her Op-Ed piece this week on McCain, Palin and the Republicans summarizes her view of Sarah Palin as follows:
“The good news is that Governor Palin has sufficient experience in public life to leave behind enough of a paper trail that we can discern her positions on many of the most important issues of the day. The bad news is that after taking this crash course in where she stands, I know that if she were elected I would be afraid to leave my apartment after sundown.”
