1. I could hardly make it through.

Julianne needed just a little more edge; she comes off as far brighter than Sarah actually is- more deer in the headlights looks needed and more mental floundering with eyes darting; smarm and swagger is missing also. Since I don't have cable, I appreciate the clip- thanks.

there are many other parts of the Game Change that Julianne Moore was awesome in (things that there aren't a Palin video for)
and many parts that aren't online

The trailers have a bit more of Moore as Palin.

Nothing that would mirror the horror of her real Vice Presidency, though...

2. I thought Julianna Moore did an excellent job. She totally disappeared into her character. And it

I doubt seriously I'd ever watch it on my own accord.

10. That clip/quote was BEFORE she was selected by McCain - and before she had Trig.

That's the video that the McCain folks were watching on YouTube of Palin BEFORE they decided to pick her as the VP pick.

15. Trig was born before she was selected by McCain

He was born April 18, 2008, several months before the vice-presidential selection.

16. The clip where the 'real' Palin says " .. my one and only son ..." is an OLD YouTube clip.

That old clip with Charlie Rose is from an October 2007 interview.

Therefore before she had Trig she would have considered Track her one and only son and would have said so in the interview.

9. Moore seems just "adequate" as Palin.

She seemed to need more "punch." Palin does infuse her rhetoric with a lot of emotion, using that to take the place of content. This is what, to me, seems lacking in Moore's performance. Just seems a little flat.

to play that awful GOP VP candidate.
I could only make it through 4:10 mins

Thank God that nightmare didn't come true. We're still suffering the effects of the nightmare of Little Boots.

Julianne Moore must have had a lobotomy to portray someone so stupid and do it so convincingly.

14. I've not had the chance to see the entire movie, but Julianne Moore isn't aggravating enough here.

I think Julianne Moore is a terrific actress and I'm sure she does well in the film.

But in this clip, she isn't NEARLY aggravating enough. Sarah Palin has the monopoly on that one entirely.
