I an soooooo dissapointed in SNL – I will NOT be watching the show on Saturday Night – I am just flabergasted that there are people out there that think she is worthy of the second highest office in this country – she is NO role model for me or my daughter – she has divided this country and made a mockery of democrocy – she is a scary, scary person! Shame on you SNL !!!!!

I love reading all the “intellectual” left comments. Why is it all the open-minded liberals suddenly call you names, grab all their toys and run out of the sandbox when they find they cannot win an argument?

Look at the facts. Palin has more experience than Obama. This is why Obama could not answer the question in debate #3 about Palin as President someday. He could not answer the question. She has more on him.

Sarah Palin will be a GREAT vice-president. I love her - people love her. And, yes - people REALLY are that smart - sorry to break that to you, Obamabots!

Sarah Palin is the only candidate that moves the needle on the Nielsen ratings.

10 million more people watched her debate than any of the Obama/McCain debates.

When she was on Fox with Sean Hannity she drew 3 times the audience that was watching Larry King and Rachel (the dike) Madow.

And when she goes on SNL, they'll break all TV viewing records for the show.

What a woman. It's really Obama vs. Sarah Palin, not McCain.

Sarah outdrew Obama by 10 million viewers in her debate. She also drew 60,000 to hear her in Orlando and 45,000 in Virginia last week.
Further she outdrew Biden in his own home town of Scranton. Shades of Gore losing Tenn.

Finally Sarah is so much more accomplished than her critics. Mayor, Governor with the highest approval rating in the U.S., Member Alaska Energy and Conservation Board and all by the age of 44 and all while raising 5 kids.

Sarah is great! Obama and Biden are boring. Fact is, Palin is far more qualified than either Obama or Biden to be US President. Palin has been elected to and successfully served as an elected executive leader of a city and a state. Something neither Obama nor Biden have done. Obama is like Nixon, trying to cover up his abuse of power on the Board he served on with unrepentant terrorist Ayers. Both McCain and Palin are proven bipartisan leaders. Obama and Biden are two of the most partisan Senators in the US. The questions regarding Obama's relationships with unrepentant terrorist Bill Ayers (who tried to murder people) are valid issues, not negative politics.

If the McCain Camp is smart, when the SNL show is over and they get ready to leave they will take Tina Fey and leave Six-pack Sarah. Tina Fay will make a better VP.

i wonder why didn't sarah palin asked the "great people of north carolina" to go vote early as their one-stop polling places are open from now til november 1st.

could it be that the mccain campaign is planning to question and request invalid all early ballots in nc (as they already done in other states), and if they do tell people to vote early, the republican votes be void as well?

tina fey will be great as usual. lock palin in the toilet so she doesn't try to steal the light and wink her way out of the skit.

You know? I notice A LOT of MEN being so negative about Gov Palin...wat is it?

All of you MEN speaking negatively about her SEARCH, really SEARCH within yourselves....I feel for your wives!!

I really don't get this. Gov. Palin is willing to go on a comedy show that has parodied her to no end, but won't do the Sunday morning news shows, Today, or even the View? She prides herself as a 'pitbull in lipstick' and says she's ready to be VP or even President if need be. That sounds pretty darn confident, even courageous. So why, Gov. Palin, why aren't you meeting with the press? What are you afraid of? Politics and the press go hand in hand. You can't avoid them forever.

You know ive been thinkin about this since ive first heard the offer,my conclusion is if she declined to do it,there would be great talk of her insecurities as a person.There must of been a great back up of people convincing her to do the show or it would lead to bad publicity.Meaning i believe if it was her decion ,she would not do it,how many agree?

She can't do an intelligent interview, she has not appeared on Face The Nation or Meet The Press...but she can appear on SNL. I am not a fan of Palins, but, she is not doing herself a service by feeding this notion held by many that she is an unqualified airhead.

Does the Republican party think Sarah Palin going on SNL is going to help John McCain's chances? I think Sarah Palin is more interested in the spotlight then the Vice Presidents office!! How could you have a questionable Vice President candidate who in June didn't know what the VP does, go on a comedy show? I can't wait to see this one!!!

Barack Obama is the right choice for America. It is not about black or white. It is about who is best to lead the United States. That person is Barack Obama!!

I think the SNL cast should pull a John McCain....When Palin shows up, the entire cast calls up and say they are suspending their jobs to campaign for Obama...Let Palin take the stage solo! and have a slew of reporters ask her 'questions'.... Have her bring Todd, Bristol, future son-in-law...and act out "A Day in the Life of Alaska's Palins" it just might compare to the Coneheads....wait, the Coneheads were intelligent beings!! Ooops!!... Yeah, I agree, sic the Church Lady on Sarah!! Isn't that Special?...Just think folks, in 19 days we'll never, ever see or hear of a Palin again!!!!!!!!!

Like the true narcissist egomaniac she is, Palin will do anything for attention. Maybe she can get the SNL audience to yell "KILL HIM" or "TERRORIST" and then just smile as usual. Let's pray that it is all part of God's plan.

Gov Palin:

Its very big of you to accept the offer to appear on SNL after all the insulting depictions by the so called talented Tina Fey. it speaks highly of your confident and forgiving nature. Go get'em Tiger Lady!! Show the freaking world and freaking hollywood how authentic you are!! We love you Sarah Palin

I am amazed by seeing the McCain campaign being more and more out of touch. People in this country don't need to be entertained by the candidates' appearance on TV. We need a solution for this economic turmoil, which I haven't heard from McCain/ Palin at all. McCain keeps saying "I know how to fix the economy", but he fails to offer how. Stop flattering/scaring us, and get serious about what they can and need to do to serve the country.

The sound of Sarah Palin's whiney voice is like nails on a chalkboard to me. I mute the tv when she's on, so I won't be watching SNL that night. Besides, Tina Fey is a much more likeable Sarah Palin any how!

@Marc....evidently you don't know what a socialist country is. When Paulson, Bush and the rest of them said that, they were taking your money to buy into these banks, we became a socialist country. DUH! The government's money is your money in the form of taxes. It would pay to educate yourself more than just listening to the political rhetoric coming out of the campaigns.

I find it so amazing that people claim that Palin is not qualified to be VP, but in the same breath claim that Obama is qualified to be Pres. Can't believe there are so many fools out there...oh, but wait....there are-the same people who voted GWB twice are going to vote Obama this time!

It is sad to see that McCain really feels that this lady can fill the position of President!!!He is certainly out of touch. Now, Ms. palin is so stuck on herself that she really think that she is all that! They both deserve each other. We still say..... Go Obama/Biden...!!!!!

Um... i find it completely absurd that Sarah Palin is even mentioned in the same sentence as McCain, Obama and Biden. She doesn't measure up to them AT ALL. Not because she's a woman, but because she is an idiot. And here she is on the ticket to become the next vice president of the US. Only in america.

SNL, well it's a start. Most VP candidates go on Meet the Press or This Week. But I guess since she is on her "on the job training" we should cut her some slack.

This week SNL, next week maybe MadTV...then we can see where we can go from there!

Shame on SNL for giving a podium to this hate-monger. I have watched SNL since its very first show during ratings ups and ratings downs. If this dangerous woman is given a forum on the show, it certainly will have one less viewer from now on. I would hope that all individuals who think that the Palin's approach with the hate-spewing crowds at her rallies is wrong will boycott SNL if she appears.
