Tina Fey does the best impersonator of another person I have ever seen. Also, she looks exactly like Sarah Palin. I like her pageant walking and I like it when she says, "The real one!"

[antoniobrajkovic]

The way they passed each other! That's comedy at its best!

[chouaibhamli]

sometimes I can't tell who's Sarah and who's Tina .

[guavaman]

I managed to respect Palin for about 15 seconds there.

[Whisper]

That is a truly scary impersonation when you put the original article next to the impostor and you cannot tell which one is real.

[Professicchio]

As if the skit couldn't get more surreal there's a llama right behind the real Sarah Palin.

Alec: "This is the most important election in our nation's history."
2020: "Hold my beer."

[ElisandroDeLeon]

I was reading about this episode in Fey's book and the lengths they went to, to make sure the audience didnt boo Palin is quite impressive. Such as having Alec Baldwin there to give the audience the message that if a liberal like him could be next to Palin, they could stay cool too.

Makes me wonder if Sudeikis' opening speech was meant more for the live audience.

[DarylBark]

wow ....that blew me actually felt 30 seconds of respect for that a good sport Sahrah

[juliusmaloney]

You could never endorse this woman's politics, but God love her having a sense of humor about herself.

[jordana.johnston]

It took me like 20 seconds to realise it was actually Palin after 2:31

[niallbyrne]

I did not know that she had such a good sense of humour. Fair play to her for doing this. So funny.

[xyinterrupted]

has anyone noticed the FREAKIN LLAMA behind Palin?!!

[TheChrissieTee]

I can’t say that I endorse Palin but she’s been a good sport here!

[wayneo]

I think she's a nut job but you gotta give her credit it takes guts to to front like that she really is a good sport.

"No recording devices, and don't write anything down"

Man, in '08 that was a joke.

"Worth a shot"

[Psergiorivera]

When Tina said she was going to do some "fancy pageant walking", I LOST IT! I may not agree with Governor Palin, but I love that she can take a good ribbing.

[BrooklynBorn]

The physical resemblance still amazes. Really love how Sarah was such a good sport abut it and actively participated.

[Sr]

One of my all time favourite sketches. Love that palin was such a good sport about it all. Don't agree with her policy, but after this sketch, she has my respect.
