I know, some things are so obvious, that even I hate to mention them. They sometimes are so painfully obvious, you just hope the Republicans GET IT all by themselves. Like the current news of Palin's pregnant 17 yr. old daughter. I can tell you, she's not doing such a great job as a mother to let her 17 yr. old get pregnant. That's what they have birth control and sex education for. Is she planning on taking that out of the schools? (Anyone know if she's Catholic?) THAT will probably ruin McCain's chances right there. Delicious irony.

As a mother, who once had a 17 yr. old daughter, I can tell you you're not paying attention and taking responsibility if something like that happens. The responsibility should have started YEARS before. Bye bye GOP. Unless, of course......it's a fixed election.
