    The best parts are when she directly quotes Palin. To quote Palin is to mock her.

    I never found Tina Fey’s Palin or Colbert’s little act funny — it isn’t really parody if you cannot tell the difference between the comedian and the target of mockery. That’s just drama.

    Now, Donald Trump’s long-form Conservative Republican parody… That is hysterical.

  3. CSK says:

    I’ve watched this six times already and I can’t stop laughing. That was dazzling. Fey is brilliant.

    Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Just hold on a second.

    Are you … are you telling me that thing earlier this week *wasn’t* an SNL skit?

    Dear God.

    Ms. Fey was forced into the impersonation eight years ago. She never was a character actor on ‘SNL’, she was primarily a writer. But she’s just too, too good, and people compared her to Ms. Palin instantly when Senator McCain brought her onto the dais.

    The grifter that keeps on giving.

    Her impersonation is even better with time. She nails it.
