Poor kid.  Tough to get pregnant at 17 anyway.  Even tougher when Mom is now under intense media scrutiny.  And I wonder how this will play with the far right supporters of Palin, those folks who think young ladies should all take purity pledges?

Well, good luck with that.  Poor kid.  It's hard enough to be 17 and pregnant.  To be 17, pregnant, and living in a "fishbowl made out of magnifying glass"(hat's off to Cardinal O'Malley of Boston for that description on life in the public eye) is more than anyone should have to bear.  Poor kid!!

I sincerely cannot believe that John McCain picked Palin. I sincerely cannot believe that, given her family's issues (new high needs baby, daughter that is pregnant, under ethics investigation) that she accepted. She should show some intelligence and step down.

I predict there is a change to the ticket at the RNC.
