I can kinda see Carly Fiorina's viewpoint about SNL portraying Palin as being sexist.

If they portray Palin as some airhead ex-beauty queen, then in a way that is sexist to imply that attractive women are not as bright as their less attractive sisters - Hillary is where she is because of her intelligence, Palin is where she is because of her looks.

But, Carly would also do well to remember Harry Truman's famous quote concerning heat and kitchens...

Default SNL now being called Sexist by McCain camp
*sigh*

Quote:
MITCHELL: You are the first person from the McCain campaign I can ask, what did you think of Tina Fey as Sarah Palin?

FIORINA: Well, I think that she looked a bit like her. I think that, of course, the portrait was very dismissive of the substance of Sarah Palin, and so in that sense, they were defining Hillary Clinton as very substantive, and Sarah Palin as totally superficial. I think that continues the line of argument that is disrespectful in the extreme, and yes, I would say, sexist in the sense that just because Sarah Palin has different views than Hillary Clinton does not mean that she lacks substance. She has a lot of substance.
