Watch: Saturday Night Live- Hillary Clinton and Sarah Palin Skit
The highly anticipated season opener of Saturday Night Live opened up with Tina Fey returning to SNL to play Sarah Palin and Amy Poeler doing her classic Hillary Clintonimpersonation. It certainly did not disappoint and had me laughing hysterically. Tina Fey nailed Palin’s look, mannerisms, and accent. Amy was great as well. This is definitely a must-see.
What do you guys think of the skit? Do you think it was pitch perfect or did it miss the mark?

PS- I do a pretty damn good Sarah Palin impersonation myself, but you’ll have to take my word for it.
I think this is an immediate classic! It said all that needs to be said about Palin, Clinton and sexism, while we laugh.
Keep encouragaing the media to ask tough questions about substantive issues and for us to keep us using our minds not our genitals to choose a leader, male or female
I think is priceless!
I agree this skit is a CLASSIC.
You’re right we should not vote on what sex he/she is. It’s also evident we SHOULD not vote on what RACE he/she is as well.
To think if Obama loses this Election, doesnt mean we as A country are not ready for a BLACK president.. It just means we we’re READY for Obama as a AMERICAN (person) as our president.. And democrats need to realize this, and so do BLACK and WHITE people.

it is on point!
it is clear Sarah is not ready for VP…. this election is not american idol…and women are not stupid
This is priceless! We should take a good look at who we’re sending to be vice-president. And maybe president. Who thought George Bush would look good?
Great Skit! It had me laughing out loud!
I just hope after Nov, I will not also be crying for our country! Never under estimate the stupidity of the American Voter! Remember, they elected GW Bush not once, but twice!
ummmmmmmmm you always on my hype reecie witherspoon!!!!!!!!!! posted this as a bulletin on myspace an hour ago! i watched it last night!
comedic GENIUS! loved every minute!
Pure truth and comedy!!! SNL has made me a fan of their show for life now. Imma start recording it so that I never miss moments like this that should go in the damn history books. When someone is a joke, make fun of them and that’s exactly what they did to Palin.
Not enough about the dinosaurs. She believes the earth is 6000 years old? That’s like believing San Francisco is 28 feet from New York!
I miss the days when Tina Fey was on SNL..but more importantly is that Tina didnt really have to do much to make Sarah Palin seem like a joke. From the “I can see Alaska from my house” comment and “I don’t know what the Bush doctrine is” comment, and when Tina Fey pretended to pose with a gun..she basically took the words that Sarah Palin has already said and used them in the skit without having to try to hard..
that’s pretty sad on Palin’s part, for the things she says to be that laughable without even having to exaggerate
*”I can see Russia from my house”
SNL is not funny/
I didn’t know this was a skit when my wife sent it to me, I thought it was the real thing. Now I know who to vote for!
Couldn’t have been more on target than this!!! Glad to see Tina Fey back in action…Depicted Palin to a tee!!!! I LOVED the crack about seeing Russia from Alaska!!! And not knowing what the Buch Doctrine is…Great job!!!
I think McCain picked Sarah Palin … just so we could get Tina Fey back! Maybe Tina should be PRESIDENT! Fabulous!!…Will be watching SNL again!
The funniest thing about the skit was that Sarah Palin gave Tina all the fuel she needed for the fodder. I mean she REALLY doesn’t know what the Bush Doctrine is and she REALLY did say “You can see Russia from some land in Alaska”. Damn shame someone like her is allowed on a national ticket.
Anyone who actually believes that Sarah Palin is not intelligent, is brainwashed. Wake up, America. It is amazing how the liberals can twist words around.
Mary…womp womp.
Mary, It’s also amazing how conservitives can find no fault what-so-ever in palin or mccain. You are brainwashed into thinking they are perfect.
Brilliant!!!!!
LOL this is cracking me up, so we are left with the decision of McCain/Palin or Obama/Biden. I guess we loss no matter who wins, but take solace, there will deffinately be some funny stuff coming from SNL.
