Voters
Have a Wide Range of Opinions at Detroit's Lodge Elementary
School
Barack Obama (Democratic), Sarah Palin and John McCain (Republican)
have been spoofed on NBC's Saturday Night Live,
which has been gaining more momentum in its 34th season
-- even the latters made an apperance on the sketch comedy.
Thanks to the start of Tina Fey's impersonation of Palin
as well as the success of their primetime specials on the
debates, the show continues to hit season-high ratings for
the first time in a decade.

McCain
Unveils Palin In Sterling Heights!
"It's
so good to be here in beautiful Sterling Heights, Michigan,"
Governor Sarah Palin of Alaska said as she began her first
speech in Michigan as a potential VP-to-be at Sterling Heights's
Freedom Hill County Park on Friday before a massive and
swelling red crowd of enthusiastic, patriotic Michiganders
from Macomb County and elsewhere in Metro Detroit.
