Great idea. Of course, the problem for Fey is that Palin may end up being so good that the suits at NBC may a) tell Fey to take a hike and, in turn, b) offer Sarah her own primetime sitcom.

Actually, McCain should continue his "anti-glitz" campaign.

He should point to the celebs used to get folks to attend Dem events and say something like "Have you seen the list of folks who appeared with Sen Obama? It's a Who's Who of great American entertainers. I may be going about this all wrong. He's the great speech maker but look at how he uses his undercard to draw crowds.
