I laughed so hard at this opener I could hardly breathe. Not only cudos to these magnificent ladies and their spot-on characterizations, but a bow on bended knee to their enormous talent. And this girl bows to no one. You two ladies totally rocked it! You owned me last night.

Good skit, very funny. Tina Fey did a great impression of Governor Palin, but Mrs. Clinton by far had the better lines. Boner shrinker. Loves it!

palin: "let's adress a very ugly role that sexism is playing in the campaign."
clinton: "an issue that i am frankly suprised to hear people suddenly care about."

YES!
RIGHT THERE!
NAILED IT!

clinton: "i disagree with the bush doctrine."
palin: "*giggle* i don't know what that is."

^ lol!

Wow. I used to be the biggest SNL fan, but I'm pretty disappointed in them now. Then again, why should I expect a very non-partisan depiction from NBC, oh silly little me!

HILLARY 2012!!!!!
maryc says – reply to this

57

Just to clarify–Pinocchio Palin is the airhead. Tina Fey–BRILLIANT to do such a truly life like impression physically, emotionally, and intellectually.

My favorite line "I can see Russia from my house" as the basis of her thoughts, and I use that term with a grain of salt, on foreign policy with Russia.

I sure hope Tina can come back to SNL to do more.

michael phelps was hilarious…one of the best SNLs in a long time.

Great sketch! The democrats screwed themselves yet again by undemocratically pushing Hillary Clinton out of the nomination in their flawed system. The party that should have won is handing the election tot the republicans for the 8th time in 11 elections.

snl was great last night!
Michael Phelps did a good job, but you can tell he was realllly nervous. I caught him staring off into space, probably trying to remember his lines. but other than that, it was really cute. haha

Re: maryc – and where in the heck you come up with that figure…the "majority" of americans….do your own poll?

I really liked this skit because, as a republican, I can appreciate the humor…and I appreciate it that it was poking fun at both Palin AND Hillary.

The resemblance was uncany!

Very funny bit. And so true about how conservatives have discovered their inner feminist since Palin came along. lol.

It is SO f-ed up that Hillary, who worked a lifetime to be the first woman in the Whitehouse, may have to watch Caribou Barbie pageant queen waltz into the position. I cried watching this because it's just so unfair. Sarah Palin destroyed the finances of Wasilla and then tried very hard to turn Alaska into a satellite office of Exxon-Mobile. At least Hillary is a constitutional law expert with actual Washington experience. The rise of Sarah Palin should be the plot of the next Mighty Ducks movie.

Excellent impression of Palin. The Clinton impression was really really bad.
maryc says – reply to this

80

Let us not forget that Hillary is going to have a very powerful role in the Senate, the body that actually writes laws, as a result of her great effort. I don't think for one minute that her role in government has been diminished but enhanced. I don't think she wanted the VP slot.

Hillary will need Obama/Biden in the White House so that her legislation can be put into practice. If you voted for Hillary you need to help her now by voting for BO.

No more Republican gridlock that is running the country into the ground.

Fact: for the past 60 years the US economy has done better under Dem leadership as measured by S&P 500 and GDP (Gross Domestic Product).

LOVED the skit last night! tina for president it was one of the funniest skits i've ever seen on snl!

If I hadnt known it was an SNL skit I would really have thought it was Sarah Palin. Best impression ever!…even the way she speaks.
Edgenet says – reply to this

83

Not that Funny, Kind of Borrowing and way to long of a skit,
maryc says – reply to this

84

I'm glad to see that so many Republican like the skit and find it funny.

I will submit that it works because it reflects the truth. Ms. Palin does not have the "right stuff" to be VP let alone President at this time while Biden does. He has spent many years learning, parsing and working on the real issues that matter to the American people. As has Obama. At this point in time, Palin is just not ready to be in the race and has been used by the Republican lie machine to distract the American public from the real issues of the day. I will only change my mind if Palin will do more "real" press interviews and/or conferences. We as American deserve to know what she really thinks. IMHO she is not ready to meet Putin face to face. Seeing Russia from Alaska is not a foreign policy statement!

IMPECCABLE impression of Palin!! I fuckin love Tina Fey. I havent laughed so hard in a while.

"I CAN SEE RUSSIA FROM MY HOUSE!" lmao

Hopefully ppl will begin to see that you can put lipstick on a republican, but they're still a republican… small-minded and heartless.

LOVE, LOVE IT…Humor at their best. SNL was the only one that had the courage to point out the bias of the media and how they kissed oObama's ass. They have my respect……they can make fun of Hillary and Palin those two have more "conjones" than all the boys in politics.

bravo snl.- Mccanin/Palin 08
