I hope Sen. Obama knows that Fey thinks that "B*tch is the new black!"

Biden is like every made-for-television president ever made rolled into one.

Speaking of that nannystate, I am mystified at how uncharismatic biden is. I'm still all like "who"?

They'd have Joe Biden and comedy-wise, those are no small potatoes.

Palin, on the other hand, is God's gift to comedians everywhere. Which is why the late night talk show hosts are either secretly or not so secretly pulling for her and McCain to win. She's job security, as Dubya has been the last eight years.

They asked Barack to appear, because they can't easily make fun of him. The man makse sense. Palin, on the other hand, is God's gift to comedians everywhere.

Did they ask Obama to make another appearance because they can't find a funny black guy to play him? Just wondering...

Tina Fey is much more attractive than Palin and you don't have to cringe when she speaks. I'm looking forward to the premiere and I hope we'll get a little of Amy Poehler as a bitter Hillary Clinton.

Will the real Ronald Reagan be playing John McCain?

Tina fey looks nothing like Sarah Palin. And by Nothing I mean she looks like just like her.

I think palin will win because tina fay and palin are, like, the same person. Though I wonder how Tina will feel having to impersonate a radically pro-life sex symbol.

I haven't watched SNL in ages, but I may have to tune in for this one.

Will Amy Poehler play Bristol Palin? Since she's already pregnant?
