Tina Fey says she's retiring Sarah Palin impersonation

People are “Mean” to Palin because she was plucked from the obscurity of Alaskan politics to co-headline a major political ticket. Had she risen to the challenge and tried to appeal to EVERYONE including her base, the race would have been a lot closer. But she only spoke to her people, and McCain’s problem was that he abandoned his base to pander to Palin’s base. Also, since the election cycle began we have seen Obama, Biden, McCain, Clinton, Edwards, Romney, Huckabee all speak hundreds of times to the press. Palin’s interviews were controlled and she only did a handful of major interviews. That is not smart strategy for someone running for the 2nd highest office in the land. She should have been more accessible, been herself, and actually should have tried to make an effort to be less polarizing and appeal to people wider than her base. Her job was to appeal to Clinton supporters, but when she didn’t speak to them it was all over. McCain ran 8 years too late, and picked a bad VP.

Palin’s time on the national spotlight is over. Let her go back to Alaska and never be heard from again. Now that the election is over Tina can go back to doing what she does best anyway.

30 Rock, Friday Night Lights and The Shield are tv’s best shows.
Palin’s ridiculous interviews with Gibson and Couric, plus her cheesecake-y winking earned her the mocking she received from Fey and others.
if male comedians can rightly mock Bush, then female comedians can mock a Bush with a bush. to say otherwise is reverse sexism.

Ah, it’s the end of a (VERY short-lived) comedic era!

WHEN WILL EW RETIRE THE UNFUNNY TINA FEY/SARAH PALIN STORIES?

I loved Fey’s impersonation of Palin and I wish it would go on forever. Palin is my hero; she’s pro-life, pro-gun, and the media hates her guts. Palin rocks!!!

LMFAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Palin is a pin head who can’t name a single paper she reads. She took 6 years to complete a 4 year degree and she graduated from a third tier college. 2 years ago she was the mayor of a town of 6000 people 2 years. Palin isn’t a strong, smart female politician. She is an embarrassment. Fey doesn’t have to support her just because she a woman.
I am glad that Palin’s 15 minute of fame is over. She has no place on the national stage.
