The real Sarah Palin shows up for Saturday Night Live in the USA. It’s scary how much Tina Fey looks like Sarah Palin, and how little they have to spoof….

Politically, it’s about the only thing the McCain/Palin camp could do at this point with the Tina Fey impersonation, self-deprecate and show ‘we have a sense of humour here’.

Is this the real one?…. (yes)

Of course, Palin looks very comfortable – but then, she has had some experience.

None of this is a recommendation for potential Commander in Chief (I know she’s not running for president, but the job of VP is to be ‘President in waiting’). Personally I want much more substance than being able to read an autocue (though given the last eight years, even that is an improvement).

I wonder, can she say ‘nuclear’?
