That’ll be the least of it. The Dr. Laura wing of the GOP will be howling about how if she’d just been a good stay-at-home mom this wouldn’t have happened. Her priorities will be questioned for allowing her teenage daughter to be thrust so cruelly into the media spotlight at such an unfortunate time. The libs will have a field day using this as proof of the wisdom of planned parenthood, sex education and condoms for all. Not to mention, that with just over 60 days left in the election cycle, and the pre-empted Republican Convention, this is going to become THE media story for the next 2 months.
It doesn’t matter how rational people view this. The MSM is going to shape this story to their purposes, and this is going to get very ugly.
If you really think the American people are going to be fooled by the folks who carried for Bill Clinton, John Edwards, Jesse Jackson, Antonio Villaraigosa, Kwame Kilpatrick, Ted Kennedy, Gerry Studds, Barney Frank and Jim McGreevey, you need to take a deep breath.
This will be a non-issue.

The MSM was going to find something(s) to attack Palin on. If this is the best they can do, then we are quite fortunate. Sorry. I fail to see how this reflects poorly on Palin. I know lot’s of good parents whose children do irresponsible things. Palin can prove here meddle by being a loving mom and a source of moral guidance. Palin was going to get a bloody nose at some point in the campaign. Now is just as good a time as any. Let’s see how she handles it.
Maybe Bristol's child was conceived around the time Palin delivered her baby.
We should bring back chaperoning./s
