Well, as I said, they were merciless.
But they were equal opportunity merciless toward both.
So I can’t complain about the opening skit.
A really good Gwen Ifell lookalike, by the way.
That was Queen Latifah playing Gwen Ifill. I had to look twice to make sure Gwen wasn’t playing herself. The skit showed Ifill SO in the tank for Obama and eager to sell her book.
They slayed me with the imitation of Biden, down to the gleaming teeth and the earnest dissing of Scranton and Wilmington.
I don’t think the Palin imitation did her any harm.
