Tracey Ullman Unveils Maddow Impression

Comedian Tracey Ullman debuted her impression of MSNBC host Rachel Maddow on Monday.

Ullman impersonated the lesbian anchor in her latest installment of Tracey Ullman's State of the Union, which premiered on Showtime Monday, just in time for the real thing to be delivered by President Barack Obama on Wednesday.

In the segment below Ullman portrays Maddow about to sit for the makeup artist, which she calls "the least favorite thing about having my own TV show."

Arianna Huffington, also portrayed by Ullman, is seated next to her.

Viewers will no doubt have opinions on which liberal media icon Ullman impersonates more deftly. The comedian is scheduled to appear on The Rachel Maddow Show on Thursday.
