There is no doubt Oscar-nominated (four times!) actress has the chops to take on the former Alaska governor and 2008 GOP candidate for vice president. Just look at her recent work in "The Kids Are All Right" and "A Single Man" as well as her Oscar-nominated turns in "Far From Heaven," The Hours," "Boogie Nights" and "The End of the Affair."
