I'm talking about the Saturday Night Live opening sketch with Palin. This is the epitome of what we could expect of Sarah Palin, as she is now, as President:
Almost-effortless delivery of lines written for her. No interaction with the press. No interaction with liberals. No giving in. No attempts to bridge the gap between liberals and conservatives in this country. But smooth chair-dancing moves.
I watched those clips and thought, wow, she took time out of the campaign just to stand around SNL and look disapproving for a couple of skits. Was it too much to ask for a little life? A little interaction with Fey? Sure, the rap was over the top, but couldn't she have tried to do something else? Even this little Obama cameo from a year ago seems like an improvement:
(Keep in mind that SNL was just as hostile towards Obama as they are now to Palin. Hillary was SNL's favorite horse... ooh, bad metaphor... oh well.)
