How can anyone take someone that goes on SNL and parodies herself seriously?  I mean America is truly a country of idiots.  Hobnobbing with Hollywood idiots.  Yeah she's got my vote! 

Honestly, I don't think the rap skit crossed the line. I don't think the line 'mother-humpin moose' is very vice-presidential, I would have insisted on changing it to 'ugly nasty moose', ...but I really believed she could have done that sketch and demonstrated an incredible sense of humour just like McCain did at the dinner.  I'm sure a few of the earlier lines about mcCain being angry could have bee re-written so it wasn't as biting, ...but the main insult in my estimation was the opening skit. That set the tone, and it was all downhill from there. With it's single largest audience in history, ...I think she did put the final nail in the McCain-Palin coffin.  If you're going to make fun of yourself, ...do it in a way that displays your idiosyncracies as charming, not in a way that's belittling and undignified.

I too loved the part when the Todd character came out, and when Amy offed the moose, I totally lost it.  ;D
She should've done the rap routine herself. Think about it. How cool would it have been to see her pull it off?

ps: I would just LOVE to see Obama rapping on SNL, ...AFTER he wins the election.

You don`t seem to understand....
Nobody is laughing with Palin, they are laughing AT HER and how close to home the skits are.  There is no fiction, but truth in jest.

Exactly!  That's why I think she should have done the rap routine herself.
People would have laughed WITH her. Look at how we all warmed up to the other guy at the dinner.
Even I saw a side to Mccain that night that I saw as positive and refreshing.
Palin once again proved she wasn't up to the task. And I cannot believe the campaign did not vet the script first.  ::)

Maybe instead of focusing on her "sense of humor" as possible VP of the USA she should be reading books on Foreign policy, the Constitution and every other area she's lacking as far as her education and experience.  That's the entire problem with America and our people.  They are all fucking dumbed down.  Life is all about having fun, laughing, and feeling good.  We are in dire times right now in this world.  There are more important things our leaders need to be focused on.  SNL and self parodies excluded.

You gotta definate point there, ...but for those of us who are always so darned serious all the time,
letting your hair down, and having a good old fashioned belly laugh every once in a while is good... no?  :-\

Read the comments on the videos, you will see what I mean.  Total disaster for Palin.  Continues to accentuate her ignorance, general stupidty and extremism.  The caricature and the real thing are inseparable at this point. Not a good thing.  Nothing positive has come of this for the McCain Camp.  Only further ridicule.


dude you took the words...

You and I yes....................t he potential VP of the most powerful country in the world?  She hasn't even landed the job yet.......NO.  I just don't think being made fun of and laughing at yourself on mainstream t.v. is "letting your hair down and having a good laugh".  I correlate it with the whole parenting and being your kids friend instead of their parent mentality.  Is it better for a parent to be their kid's parent or their kid's best friend?  I'm sure according to the kid they'd love to have their parent by them beer and be their best friend instead of telling them to go clean their room and do their homework.  We are a country of children who need to stop screwing around and have a leader that tells us to clean up our room and do our homework instead of buying us beer.

Potential holder of the second most powerful, demanding position in the world "raising the roof".  Like I said America is a country of idiots.

Did you see the Alfred E. Smith Memorial Foundation Dinner with Obama and McCain? Was that the destruction of sober political discourse or the end of American civilization?  ::)

I thought it was ridiculous.  Shows me that Obama and McCain are really two sides of the same politically elite coin.  In public they are arch enemies in private they are bed buddies.  They are achieving exactly what they want......to divide and conquer America.
