Great "interview". This should really propel Tina Fey's career.
Politically, this is what happens when you bring someone up to the majors too fast ... you ruin the rest of their political career.
Who knows ... Palin might have had a shot at President 12-16 years from now ... now she has NONE.

Voter Registration Shut Down? Bad Timing for Social Security Maintenance
Bad timing or last ditch effort to supress new voters? A recent alert by the Social Security Administration announces that the agency plans to shut down its databases for maintenance from October 11 through October 13. How will this hurt new voters? Election officials would lose 4 days of processing time needed to handle new registrants. Elections staff are already overworked at this time of the year and this is another straw on the camel's back.
This 4 day shutdown occurs at a critical time for most states - it is just past the average cutoff date to turn in new voter registrations. (25 days before the election). Thanks to the "Help America Vote Act" passed in 2002, officials now must check either the registrant's last 4 digits of their social security number against the government database, or the voters drivers license number against the DMV. This shut down would mostly hurt voters who do not have a car or drive.

Scary fucking shit
