John McCain may have been more involved during his appearance on SNL, but his running mate Sarah Palin is still stealing his thunder. While she got the show its highest ratings in 14 years (15 million viewers), McCain's appearance only drew 12 million. Overall, however, the Daily News reports that Saturday's show had its "second highest audience in Nielsen's sample of major markets in 11 years" (whatever that means), and "Saturday's telecast was up 73% when compared to a year ago." Perhaps an Obama appearance would have delivered SNL its highest ratings ever, but he chose to spread the wealth with his network-spanning informercial. Meanwhile, NBC points out though McCain can take a joke, the Palin ones can bother him, which might "explain... 'frosty' chemistry between Tina Fey and McCain." Good thing they didn't refer to that prank call.

It's the same media that NEVER mentioned Muslims' hatred of Israel as a possible motive for 9/11.

Too bad, since McCain is so much funnier.
look, i understand that when palin was selected, everybody went "whoa, Tina Fey."
But let's be honest, Tina Fey, with that weak chin, makes a really wonky looking Sarah Palin! (voice and mannerisms not withstanding)
...and SNL has NEVER been funny.
Says the failed comedy writer.
yer a fucking failed comedy writer - put your sweater back on, cracker.
You have to admit, Cindy McCain modeling the McCain(Fein)Gold was priceless.
JRod, that woman reminds me of something out of Predator.
Not that I disagree with you at all :)
I'd find McCain funny if it wasn't that he picked Palin for the second highest office in the land. Once Again, It's just like this serial killer who raped your father and killed your mother but he went on SNL and was funny as hell but all you can think about is him serial killing.
Obama cult members are still furious that Palin and McCain were on their show. Obama cult members will attack Palin at any and every chance. They must do all they can to defend CULT OF OBAMA!
