Take that, Tina: Palin wants to spoof her spoofer

October 6, 2008
BY BILL ZWECKER Sun-Times Columnist

It's looking more and more likely that Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin will
appear on ''Saturday Night Live'' -- to have some fun with Tina Fey.

As the comedian's impressions of the GOP vice presidential candidate
draw laughs from Republicans and Democrats alike, a top honcho from
the John McCain campaign tells me there's a debate going on about how
to respond.

Some key McCain staffers are content with Palin joking about the "SNL"
routines on the campaign trail -- as when she scribbled "I'm not Tina
Fey" on a supporter's cell phone and said she'd dressed as Fey on
Halloween. But others -- including the governor herself -- think a
return punch on the NBC airwaves is what's needed.

I'm hearing some sort of Palin tweak of Fey's American Express
commercials is in the works.

While next weekend's ''Saturday Night Live'' will be a rerun, it is
possible Palin could appear Thursday on the first of NBC's ''Weekend
Update'' specials in prime time.

Otherwise, the next orginal "SNL'' show will be broadcast Oct. 18, a
little more than two weeks before the election.
