Palin's SNL debut a yawner


I really did have high hopes for this, but... *Pfft* Palin's appearance on SNL was really a dud. I suppose it's not all her fault - she could have insisted on something funnier, etc., but as usual, Tina Fey was funny, and hey, guess what? She's probably more qualified to be vice president, too.

Pretty funny how art imitates life, though - Palin said on the show that she wouldn't take any of the reporter's questions, and she doesn't in real life, either. I don't know what I find more stupefying - that she hasn't held one press conference since being named to the McCain ticket, or that the press has largely given her a pass for not answering any questions of substance. She hasn't given many genuine interviews, either - the Charlie Gibson & Katie Couric sit-downs were horrific, and Sean Hannity? Puh-leese.
