Tina Fey, of Saturday Night Live has made a name for her self, as you may know, she has been doing reenactments, if you will, of vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin. I wounder if something like this has an effect of how people will vote. Fey, does a really good job at acting like Palin, it's kind of scary watching how good she is. However, they do make-fun of both parties.
So even though Tina Fey does a great job at making-fun of Sarah Palin will it effect peoples vote? I don't think it will, I mean just because she does do a good impression does not mean people think that's how Sarah Palin i in real life. And they also make-fun of the other party too. One of their first Palin impersonations, was also with Hilary Clinton, and Hilary, said "the media needs to grow a pair, and if they couldn't they could use hers" (You can see it on YouTube here, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8jGcrfH0KjM) but just because some actor says something about another person does not mean it's going to change a persons opinion about them.
I like Sarah Palin, but just because Saturday Night Live makes-fun of her does not mean I like her less, in fact, it kind of makes me like her better. So what do you think? Do shows like Saturday Night Live change a persons opinion on another person? or could it?

I think that the public opinion could be swayed by many things. Humor seems to be the weapon of choice for the last decade for american culture. Public opinion is going to be swayed. Whether that is to love the person being made fun of or hate them.
