WOW, Palin just BOMBED on SNL.
I thought she would at least get one or two laughs, or maybe some applause here and there.
No laughs. Zero. She looked pissed off the entire time. Yikes!

Another diary exists with a nice synopsis and some good detail... this is just my "first read" on Palin's much anticipated "performance":

Tina Fey was her usual hilarious self in her parody of the biggest joke of a VP in history.
Maybe it's a small step forward for the wicked witch of Wasilla since she didn't get roundly BOOed by the crowd like she did at the Flyers game. (although I could hear a few 'boos' when she stepped up to the podium, but nothing major)
At least Mark Walhberg was funny. But what does it say for your personality when you get out shined on SNL by Marky Mark? (not that Mark Walhberg isn't bad ass... he just isn't marketed as a funny guy).
I suppose it's a real tough transition to go from spewing race baiting hate speech and covering up scandals in her home state to trying to be funny on SNL.
I'm sure there is plenty of opportunity for jokes about Palin bombing on SNL and Palin wanting to bomb Iran or the American parts of the United States, etc. So I look forward to the comments!
UPDATED after Weekend Update piece:
Seriously, is the McCain campaign afraid to let her talk even on fake news shows too? (other than Fox News)
What was that, 3 or 4 lines she had there? Of course, she couldn't have done the rap that Amy Poeller did, but she could have had a few jokes in there somewhere, anywhere... what gives?
