shipoker58: Bottom Line: This is politics, and anything is fair game. People used Bill's behavior to vote against Hillary. So people will use teenage daughter to vote against mommy! Politics is dirty by nature. Get over it. It won't change.Remember...all is fair in love and war




This is one issue that I think can backfire faster then any other issue that will be brought up by either side.

Fact: Teenager pregnancy is on the rise
(in both democratic and republican homes)

Fact: the economy has deteriorated to such an extent both parties staunchest supporters have been effected

Fact: many single parents as well as married couples with children are forced to leave their children in somebody else's care and supervision. Hell, some are even giving the responsibility of supervising or looking after, to the eldest child.

I think it will serve both parties best if they just leave this hot potato alone.

I don't think that the media will let them, fireliter. You got to know the everytime Palin makes a meda presentation a question is going to come.

Go back to the Church Q&A...when McCain was asked about when life began...he said conception and got that response. He then knew knew how to to keep the Christian right and the Christian dems in support of him. Then when the media got it and people around the country blogged and messaged on it. He saw the different position on say Kos and Huffiington Post...realized it was not a dead issue. But a debateable one.

Palin is kind of on his short list as VPs. He does not want to do a Hillary on her and not vet her. So he sends a team to Alaska and do that. They come back with the info of her daughter pregnancy.

Time for a shrewd political decision. Palin and her family situation just took the bump from Obama, the DNC, and gave McCain's camp mommentum in this campaign. A real new dynamic to it.jmo

Americanproud: Sorry all the media is now and always has been pro Dems.

The media leaked this story. Not the Republican camp. The media kept it going not the Democrat camp.

If the media was so pro Republican why didn't they go on about the appalling behavior of the Clintons in Ohio last week. To use a funeral of an Ohio politician as a campaign stop for Obama. That was tactless and tasteless.

I'll think you'll find that the Republicans decided to release this "story". They were probably right tactically. The media run this rubbish as news because WE watch and read. If we didn't they would give us something else. The media agenda in the end is what sells.....so it is up to us to choose what level of public debate we want!

When you come down to it it is the media that makes politics the dirtiest is can possibly be.

I think it shows they are human and has problems like the rest of us. As far as democrats using it as a political tool to attack, maybe they should get a hold of Monica's dress(Presidents D.N.A should bring in big bucks) and have an auction and donate the money to a shelter for young mothers.teddybear sad flower I'm not a crookpeace
