Since Sarah Palin was everyone's favorite guest-star (after Mark Wahlberg) on Saturday Night Live last weekend, she might have some job prospects waiting for after she loses her VP bid.
"Any television person who sees the numbers when she appears on anything would say Sarah Palin would be great," said veteran morning-show producer Steve Friedman, citing the double-digit ratings gains her appearances on "Saturday Night Live" and "CBS Evening News" generated. "The passion she has on each side, love and hate, makes television people say, 'Wow, imagine the viewership.' "
Of course, no one is making any firm offers yet, because there's still that snowball chance in hell that the Republicans will be able to steal this election, but let's just say that after months of watching washed-up celebrities duke it out on Viacom-owned channels, we'd love to see a I Heart Hockey Moms reality contest of some sort. First prize? Adoption by Sarah Palin and a renaming to Zamboni.

I can imagine her replacing Elizabeth on The View…
Horseshit. The only reason she grabbed huge ratings is because she's news right now - specifically a female vice presidential candidate that refuses to give a press conference or non-partisan interview. People tuned in to watch her in SNL only because she has been fucking mocked nationally on a repeated basis and people wanted to see how her appearance with her doppelganger went down. Once the election is over and they lose, she will more than likely become a far-right republican media star a la James Dobson or Pat Robertson, but I don't see her appeal to mainstream America extending beyond Nov 4th.
