It seems like if McCain had any wind of it he wouldn't risk the scandal.
You give McCain a lot more credit than I do. :) He met her once before nominating her his running mate...
FWIW, I don't think Bristol is the mother of Trig. In fact, I have even darker thoughts on the subject. Thoughts like, "the only reason you get on an 11 hour flight after your water has broken prematurely with your fifth child is if you don't care what happens to that child."
She'd still be the patron saint/poster child of the pro-life crowd whether or not her baby with Down's Syndrome survived past birth.
I would not normally ascribe such malice to a person I barely knew, but I also wouldn't go back to work 3 days after my child's birth.
I'd also like to note that when i was a full eight months pregnant people wouldn't necessarily have believed it.
Yes. But to play the devil's advocate: with each subsequent pregnancy most women show earlier and more.
I'm totally in the schadenfreude camp on this one, whatever the reality. Dan and I are watching the RNC Convention on C-Span and waiting to see if they nominate someone other than Palin as VP. :)
