Life magazine editors in 2004 had an eye for a political pair--they put John McCain and Tina Fey on the October 15 issue that year. (At the time, Life was published as a newspaper supplement, one of its many incarnations in a long history.) The cover line: "Why We're Voting: Inside the booth, with Tina Fey, John McCain, Manny Ramirez, Andre 3000 and other upstanding citizens." In her interview, Fey says she is a registered independent and, when asked her preference for Bush or Kerry, she notes, " Comedians should keep it to themselves so they can make jokes about everyone." Prescient, Tina. And McCain says his daughter was irate with him for endorsing George Bush in the 2004 Presidential election. "I've never been so angry at you," she told him. Prescient as well.
The cover caption reads, "Fey straightens out McCain."
One big difference between Fey and McCain's current running mate, Sarah Palin: wardrobe. Tina is wearing jeans and a blazer that, while they look great, were probably not part of a $150,000 outlay.
