Not bad.
If that’s the article everyone was talking about, including Drudge,...not bad, not bad at all. :)
The NY Slimes just hoisted the white flag. The massive media attack campaign against Sarah Palin has failed... at least, for now.
So is this the so-called hit piece DU and Kos were anticipating?
It was not negative at all.
Actually, they seem to clear up the rumor of her flying around when in labor.
But I am interested in how the media (prior to this article) seemed to know that she was leaking fluid...seems to me to be some kind of other leak...like the kind of leak that should land someone in the slammer for 10 years.
I actually thought it was a very good piece. I guess, if people are looking for something to dislike, they can find it, but I enjoyed the article very much.
I didn’t think even the NYT would be stupid enough to do a hit piece on someone’s baby.
As if I didn’t already incredibly admire this woman, even more so now. She brings her kids with her everywhere and is actually able to concentrate/multitask a press conference with the kids around.
And, she breast feeds.
What an amazing example of womanhood. One day back to work with Piper and 3 days back to work with Trig. Wow. I also admire her determination to get back into her state of Alaska to give birth. I’m sure she thought it would be awful for the governor to give birth in Texas.
But then, those people, and the more than half of the Times news staff who are prejudiced against "breeders" were never going to like her, anyway. With everyone else, this article in the Times, or its reflection in the rest of the media, will HELP the McCain / Palin ticket.
I'm feeling better and better about the odds of a competent outcome in the 2008 election.

Isn't that about the amount of time OHB was a Senator before he started campaigning? Sheesh, even Palin's baby has as much experience as the messiah!
“To any critics who say a woman can’t think and work and carry a baby at the same time,” she said, “I’d just like to escort that Neanderthal back to the cave.”
Now that would have been a good line at the convention directed at the MSM
Trig rocks. I’m totally taken by that little guy. I suspect he’s going to become the adopted son of a couple hundred million Americans as we watch him grow up. Trig’s extended family will be all of us.
Wow. A somewhat decent article from the Times?!
*stares*
Obama is so gangsta’. The NY Times staff must have had its collective head swirled in a toilet by a menacing Community Organizer to put out such an un-editorialized piece like this without any warning.
The Olbermann/Matthews caning was equally intriguing. I’m just waiting for bodies to start turning up...
No wonder they are having financial trouble. [snark!]
It is not a hit piece. Quite sympathetic actually, especially for the NYT.
I don't understand. This is the NYTimes, right? Well, the only possible explanation: the Times staff didn't write this. But the Times still published it. (Perhaps there's a virus attached?)
What a bunch of slime.
The only reason her children are in the spotlight is because the press are focusing on it.
Hillary tried to tie her politics to motherhood all the time - remember “it takes a village to raise a child.”? How about the press orgasming over how great they told us Chelsea was raised?
Nancy Pelosi did her first day as speaker of the House with her grandchildren in her lap. She sat up there and made some bogus speech about how we need more mothers in elected office or some crap.
The American left really sucks.
My only quibble with the article is the use of Ms. instead of Mrs. but that complaint is up to Sarah.
Remarkably different reporting from what we've been getting. I thought we'd have to rely solely on the British press. Hopefully this will calm things down a bit.
The Slimes is claiming she “covered up” her pregnancy? How does that work? More likely she just didn’t talk about it all over the place, like, for example, the Slimes talks about our national security secrets. They wouldn’t understand discretion if it hit them in the face.
Another lie. Hawaii Gov. Lingle was on Fox's special on Gov. Palin Saturday night, and said Gov. Palin was called on at the last minute to give the speech because the designated speaker couldn't make it. Oh, and guess what else the Slimes leaves out: it was an ENERGY conference.
