Yes, she is preaching to the choir for us. Mrs. Palin is a very smart woman. She needs to bring her message to the sheep.

If the Won old interview Glozell Green, Sarah can appear on the classier SNL.

I watched SNL perhaps three times, and that was about forty years ago, or when it was a curiosity. Never watched it since. I didn’t find it funny, much less entertaining.

Lol....I’ll definitely try to watch this. I love your idea about Sarah playing Tina’s career....or at least cracking her awesome zingers about it.

Yikes! If that's your way to show love, I'd be afraid to see how you show disdain 😜

More so than smart, she is aggressive.

Who else is going after the president like she is?

We all feel this way about him, but she can articulate the same AND be heard by the masses.

Electing this president was a mistake, but publicly, who else is making the point and being heard? Krauthammer, maybe; and he’s as smart, but outside of Fox News, he’s nobody to the entertained class.

In this way, Palin does have gravitas.

If you call being one of the greatest and most effective conservatives ever, being an entertainer.

It is more accurate to call you an anti-conservative troll.

It is smart, and it was smart the last time she went on SNL.

Since she is probably the most effective conservative campaigner and endorser in history, why would you want her to stop?

In the last 6 years she has helped create and lead a true conservative movement and has participated in well over a 100 elections that have moved the congress and senate, and governorship to the right.

She’s already appeared in person on SNL so it’s not a big deal.

Personally, I enjoy watching the audience having to applaud her when I know it’s killing them.

She gave up politics to give speeches and go on TV. I say good for her. If you want to call her a “speaker” or “commentator” then go ahead. I call that an entertainer.

From the article:

Live from New York, it’s ... Sarah Palin!

Saturday Night Live’s one-woman ratings bonanza, Sarah Palin will participate in the show’s 40th anniversary special, a political source tells PEOPLE.

SNL producer Lorne Michaels invited Palin to return to the show and the former Alaska governor accepted, a source close to Palin confirms.

Palin, the Republican VP candidate who was regularly spoofed on the show by spot-on comic doppelgänger Tina Fey during – and after – the 2008 presidential race, showed she was a good sport by appearing on the show herself two weeks before Election Day that year.

No hard feelings since then? You betcha!

PEOPLE hears that Palin will return to SNL’s 30 Rock studios bearing gifts – three “Alaska Grown” hoodie sweatshirts for Fey and her two little girls.

SNL’s 40th anniversary special airs Feb. 15 at 8 p.m. ET on NBC.

I hope it is not a redo of that disjoined speech in Iowa.

This will widen her visibility among the voters ahead of the 2016 election.

She cannot help herself.

This endears her even more to me. The best way to defeat the Left is with humor. By returning to the show, it makes her detractors even more angry and bitter.

SNL is also now an American institution. Even the firefighters from 9/11 appeared on the show.
