McSame Throwing You Betcha Under the Bus?

St. Maverick McSame turned in a pretty funny performance in Saturday Night Live's opening skit, with the set-up being McSame and Gov. You Betcha pitching their campaign on the QVC channel. However, Tina Fey's You Betcha was portrayed as an opportunistic climber, selling her 2012 campaign tee shirts and displaying her ambition for bigger things a few steps from McSame. An interesting dynamic, because McSame obviously knew that was in the script, since it had him calling "Sarah, where are you?" off camera.

Does anyone now think the "diva" and "whack job" quotes of McSame's staff referring to You Betcha weren't at least tacitly approved by McSame himself?
