Governor Palin did very well (not that I expected her not to--I expected problems with the hosts). Her prior televison experience as a broadcast journalist paid off handsomely here, and she is the master of the "look." In fact, her individual facial expressions are worth a thousand words, especially when blowhard Alec is putting her down.
During the rap skit, she moves like a natural born dancer, and was thoroughly unintimidated. And the moose prancing across the floor and then getting shot WAS funny. I did notice that the audience was somewhat cool to her, but that was to be expected. So, thank goodness it did not turn out to be the disaster I half-way expected, even though I doubt she won any new votes.
Yeah, Diane Lane is a real beauty, and to think that he beat her just makes me sick.
They couldn’t really put them side-by-side as that might have shot down future Fey work as her. When they were relatively close for a real short time at the end, you could see that Sarah is built totally different than Tina. A much more healthy looking woman.She would have dwarfed Tina if they were placed side-by-side.
LOL!
Me either.
And no one is....and I think that is great~
Max Payne is out and so is An American Carol
Literally! I showed the DVR recording to my 16 y/o Freeperboy today, and he wanted to see the moose a few times. He laughed his head off! I loved the whole thing - "Obama! Ayers! Obama! Ayers!"
Both skits were HYSTERICAL.
Shimmer! It’s a dessert topping! It’s a floor wax! It’s both!
My son laughed out loud at Fey skedaddling when Palin came in: “Byeee!” She couldn’t get away from Sarah fast enough!
“This hatred from the left is way over the top
It is truly pathological”
Frightening.
I really enjoyed it! Having been in socially hostile situations before, there is no better way to react than to have fun with grace. She won. She may have won over a few people, too. (Not Fey, though.)
And she did the “Goodnight, and have a pleasant tomorrow” bit perfectly just like Jane Curtin did.
Brava!
