Breaking News -- Governor Palin's Daughter
Fox News just ran a "breaking news" report that Governor Palin's 17 year old daughter is pregnant, and may be marrying the father of her baby.

I'm curious to see the response by the Dems on this particular issue.

Re: Breaking News -- Governor Palin's Daughter
According to Fox News, McCain was aware of this prior to the selection. Also, they are calling it a "private family matter", but I'm sure they wanted to make sure that they broke the news themselves, instead of letting it just be "found out."

Re: Breaking News -- Governor Palin's Daughter
I saw a hint of her being pregnant the other day. The liberal article was speculating on the abortion issue since the governor is pro-life.

Re: Breaking News -- Governor Palin's Daughter
From the obvious political angle, I can't help but see this as a positive. Her oldest is serving in the armed forces. Her youngest has downs, and now she has a 17 year old going through a "crisis".
A whole LOT of people are going to relate to one aspect or another of her family life.

S. Palin was pregnant when she got married too.

How sad that anyone thinks this is appropriate for the news to report on. Imagine being 17 year old young lady and having to deal with all the issues of her pregnancy played out in front of a nation.

One week ago, she wouldn't have had to worry about it.

I think it's necessary for them (the family and the campaign) to report on it, to minimize the negative press (if any). Although, I don't think the Democrats will make themselves look good if they say anything negative toward the daughter or Governor Palin over this issue.
