Helluva job vetting there, McCain. LOL
“Senior McCain campaign officials said McCain knew of the daughter’s pregnancy when he selected Palin last week as his vice presidential running mate, deciding that it did not disqualify the 44-year-old governor in any way.”
Another story says McCain knew.
Actually, if you read the article, McCain knew about before he chose her. But decided it would not affect his decision to choose Palin.
Palin is still a great candidate. Far better than anything on the democratic ticket.
He knew.
According to the article, McCain was aware!
It says he knew..heck in most of these political families something is going on with the kids ...hard to avoid
Helluva job vetting there, McCain. LOL
Are you assuming McCain didn’t know? I bet he did know assuming Palin knew at the time of vetting that her daughter was pregnant.
Your assuming McCain didn't know this, I would be that he did. Its a non-issue anyway.
If this is true, and I hope not, it really doesn’t affect the way I feel about her. She is doing the right thing by standing with her daughter and encouraging her to marry the father.
This is a real world dilemma that most libs would avoid by abortion.
Did you read the article? McCain new about it. The fact that a daughter gets pregnant (it happens), does not take anything away from Sarah Palin's accomplishments nor that she is a fantastic VP pick. There is not a person on this planet who does not have some sort of skeletons in their closet and I'm sure that McCain weighed the impact of this in his decision. Besides, kids are off limits in campaigns - remember, the liberals told us so!
She and her boyfriend are in love, they’re getting married and she’s having a baby. What’s the problem?
What, you can't read past a headline?

I haven’t been thrilled with this pick but he was vetting the mother and not the daughter. Just because her daughter chose to be irresponsible and have (possibly unprotected) sex before marriage doesn’t mean that those were the values the mother taught. Sometimes great parents breed kids who behave poorly.
McCain said he knew. Besides, do you really think this would have made him choose ..... say Lieberman?
The Palins are going through what lots of families go through. So what? At least they don’t regard this as punishment.
You don't think Palin told McCain?
LOL? LOL? What’s that supposed to mean? LOL???
If you had read the article you would have seen that McCain new about it. She was fully vetted.
LOL? Makes me think you’re a bit sick in your thinking. How can anyone be gleefull about another’s turmoil?
I can see where you got your name...”pissant”
“Helluva job vetting there, McCain. LOL”
ummm....McCain knew.
next?
I’m sorry, I wasn’t aware that Bristol Palin was the VP pick...isn’t she 18 years too young to serve as VP?
