Hey All! This is my first blog so bare with me.
A Valuable source (some blog) said that Sarah Palin, the Republican Vice Presidential Nominee's daughter is pregnant. At age 17, she is unwed and pregnant. Sources say that she plans to keep the baby, due to her strict teachings on Pro-Life and Pro-Choice. Palin had this to say about it.
"Our beautiful daughter Bristol came to us with news that as parents we knew would make her grow up faster than we had ever planned. We're proud of Bristol's decision to have her baby and even prouder to become grandparents," Sarah and Todd Palin said in their brief statement. (Courtesy of Yahoo!Inc.)
So what is my opinion on this subject.....
Well, my opinion is made based upon a few factors.
1. She is not married. 17 year old Palin has a baby coming by a man to whom she is unwed. Do you think that a class called Sex Ed. would help? In Palins governing state, Sex Ed. is not taught in most schools. HELLO??? Contraceptives are not given out in school and we have no idea what these children know about contraceptives and safe sex practices as well as maybe a New JERsey resident might have.
2. I know politics can get very dirty, especially close to election. My father was a political in his day and the stories he tells me amazes me. Alright, if you are going to mess around with a canidate, that to me is more prefered than personally attacking someones child. McCain was right for shutting all criticisms down before they began.
3. WHO IS SARAH PALIN? From what we know, she is a govenor of a state that is doing very well with the gas situation; always a plus. She is a mother of five children, one of whom has downsyndrome; good... becuase she chose to keep that baby. She is John McCain's running mate; also good. But What else? I feel that i dont know enough about her to even consider voting for her. She is fairly new doing politics on a national level. McCain doesnt even know her well enough to even pick her as his VP. Shoot, im sure he picked her just for the purposes of using her to get to the gullable Hillay supporters.
In General.... Her daughter becoming pregnant makes her even more down to earth. It shows that she can touched with our afflictions and imfirmities. She knows the good and bad to normal life. Could she have stopped it?? Maybe, maybe not; but shes pregnant already; five months. What can we do? Let's wait and see what will happen when this kid is born!!

I see both of your points. Generally, I think a candidate's family should be off limits. Yet, Palin has made her family an issue. If being a mother of 5 is such a significant component of her resume, shouldn't that be fair game? As Vinroy noted, the events in her family life do illustrate some debatable policies.
