Which of these 6 Actors Has Been Cast as Sarah Palin in the HBO Movie Game Change?

Having already directed the HBO movie, Recount — about the 2000 election — Meet the Parent’s director Jay Roach will not direct Game Change, about the 2008 election (has it been 3 years already?) It’s based on the book by Mark Halperin and John Heilemann, and it follows the John McCain campaign from the moment he chose Sarah Palin until their election night defeat.
It sounds fun, actually. Yesterday, Deadline announced who had been chosen to play Sarah Palin, and while you could just click on the link and find out, wouldn’t it be more fun to try and guess from among these five choice.
A. Mariska Hargitay

I saw the answer on The AV Club yesterday, and I have to say they made an interesting choice. Not the obvious choice, but the role will be in capable hands. I'm very curious about what tone the series will have given the book was supertrashy (in a way I guiltily enjoyed), or if they'll go for serious, which is in this actress's wheelhouse (at least in my opinion).
