rumors.

I have a weird hunch the kid is hers and pretty soon they are going to come out with some very official testimony from her dr. regarding the birth - who attended it, any witnesses etc.

I think they are up to something in not squelching the rumor already - they are waiting for it to surface even more than it has - then the trap will shut on us and we are going to look like idiots.

1. I agree! But sometimes rumors have elements of truth...

This woman is not to be trusted. Alaska residents are stunned (in a bad way) that she was chosen, that should be our first indicator that something is wrong with her

2. Perhaps Eleanor Roosevelt can provide insight for the level of discussion. . .
Said she: "Great minds discuss ideas; average minds discuss events; small minds discuss people."

3. There Is So Much Baggage With Her!
Her lack of concern for the animals(like the polar bears and wolves)...her belief that women are breeders first and fore most...her desire to push religion in schools..her rubbing elbows with big oil. We need to make sure that others know exactly what she stands for and what she doesn't.

4. lets find it "all"
Then she will be a hypocrite in her personal and professional life. We need to destroy their candidates completely, if McCain was this stupid to put her behind out there for us to pick apart..then lets get to it.

5. The rumor about Gidget's Baby has been around for months.
Why didn't they come out and squelch it earlier as you describe? It seems like it would be so easy. I don't buy the idea that they are purposely making us talk about it so they can suddenly put the kibosh on it and make us look like fools. That's a little too convoluted for Republicans - they favor the sledge-hammer approach.

So you contribute yet another baby thread which kicks off all the other issues on the front page?

7. Yup. There are a lot of other issues with her.
http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/world/us_and_americas/us_elections/article4641030.ece">She opposes same-sex marriage, but one of her first acts in office was to veto a bill blocking health benefits for gay lovers of public employees. http://gaycitynews.com/site/news.cfm?newsid=20098390&BRD=2729&PAG=461&dept_id=568864&rfi=6">The McCain campaign has very effectively spun the veto to show Palin, 44, as sympathetic toward the gay and lesbian community. Palin opposes same sex marriage.

http://gaycitynews.com/site/news.cfm?newsid=20098390&BRD=2729&PAG=461&dept_id=568864&rfi=6">Then Palin's 20 months in the governor's office have been taken up with the state's oil and gas industry. Health issues generally, such as substance abuse or mental health, have not received much attention, Storrs said.

http://www.nytimes.com/2008/08/30/us/politics/30palin.html">She has supported the teaching of intelligent design in public schools, alongside evolution.
