Tina Fey is a liberal piece of crap as most of Hollywood/New York actors, there are few and far between actors that really know what is up in politics...

Your casting is perfect, save on role/actor. Tom Cruise. What a waste of talent. I don't think Cruise would do it anyway; for two reasons: #1, it's not all about him. #2, it's not all about him. He's a hack. Try John Travolta, James Brolin; hell, Porky Pig would do a better job and be much easier to work with over Tom "Snooze."
All the other picks were right on the money. Perfect.

Uh, hello? Denzel Washington is the obvious choice for Barack Obama. And Bill O-Reilly? Are you serious AOL? Kevin Spacey should play Huckabee.

I've said for the longest that Mariska Hargitay looks like Sarah Palin. I'm glad someone else sees the resemblance!
