McCain isn’t a preacher. He’s running for POTUS and leader of the free world.
This will significantly undermine McCain’s campaign effort.
I thought it was simply a lousy vetting process. Instead, its a major blunder by McCain. WOW!
Hey, did you refuse to vote for Reagan because of the inexcusable behavior of his children? Huh, did you? Get over it.
McCain knew.
I disagree. If handled correctly from here on out it will actually have the capacity to be a big plus. It humanizes the Palin family. It also exemplifies McCain's strength of conviction. If it is true that he knew (I hope it is) then it should be pointed out publicly that he chose her despite this because he believes in her and that as an imperfect human being himself he doesn't pass judgment on a young girl just starting her life who is making a brave decision to face her responsibilities and the consequences of her actions.

How?
Would it be better that Sarah Palin had aborted all of her 5 children in the past, and thus not have had any problems that those pesky children sometimes bring?
She has 5 kids, and kids sometimes do dumb things. Her daughter is not going to have the child slaughtered and dumped into a stainless steel sink in a abortion clinic. That is a good choice.
Are you a parent?
Its not a major blunder, you just want it to be. The only people who are going to be upset at this are the self righteous, socially liberal snops who think that the daughter should have had an abortion. True conservatives are going to accept this woman who has done everything right by encouraging her daughter to do the right thing. The question is what sort of a person are you?
