who will be paying for the health insurance of Palin's baby?
I guess Mom will be helping out financially. I hope Palin isn't planning on putting the baby on her taxpayer supported health insurance or using any government programs to help her get through college.

1. One of three (or four) things:
1) She's getting "married". Husband's policy. Not likely to be on parents' policy if she is legally "autonomous" by getting married.
2) If husband has no policy, then (a) or (b):
(a) Medicaid
(b) Uninsured
3) Could get own policy and have Mom pay the premiums.

2. well, since she's 17...
She's probably covered under both parent's policies. The "Union" health policy of her dad's and the "gov't funded" one of her mom's. But unions and gov't funded healthcare are bad, right?
