I doubt it. The timing on the announcement is not really good. The appropriate time to announce it would have been in Alaska prior to the choice, or as part of the press release for the choice. It would have been much less of a circus.

As I posted the timing is goofy--but it is hard to believe Saraah would try and keep it secret from McCain --maybe they thought they could keep it quiet till after the election

No Sarah would never try to hide it from the campaign. She is an adult and understands reality. But 17 year old girls who turn up with a pregnancy and are the daughter of governors are under enough stress so as not to necessarily make the realistic decision on telling people about their pregnancy.

Screw elections and politics. The girl may have had a really bad mental week. But now it is out in the open and people who care about her can start working on making it better.
