Last time I checked, SNL was a comedy show. Stay out of politics and stick to what you know best: spying on employees, getting sacked, and catching a $21M golden parachute. You are McCain's top economic adviser? No wonder he STILL thinks "the fundamentals of our economy are strong". Tina Fey has achieved more to advance the female gender (first female head writer at SNL, creator and head writer of 30 Rock, plus her screen successes) than you could ever possibly aspire to. You, on the other hand, do nothing but detract from the cause. You are a disgrace and I am surprised you still have the audacity to speak in public, let alone on behalf of someone running for the highest office in the land. Dry up and disappear already, your 15 minutes were over 3 years ago! Message to Carly Fiorina: you should research the meaning of the word satire. Last time I checked, SNL was a comedy show.

Just the watching reporters via closed circuit sounds kind of creepy to me. But for the reporters being isolated. I can't be too hard. She is McCain's running mate. And it is too early to see which reporters have "earned" the priviledge of sitting up front. So Palin sat in another part of the plane and watched the reporters on closed circuit….
