There are so many negative things coming out about the Palins that even the Daily Kos is having trouble keeping up. All I can say is that if half the rumors are true, the Palin clan is one very busy family. I think there is the makings for a show like Dallas!

McCain Camp Knocks Down Enquirer's Palin Rumor

From CBS News' John Bentley:

(ST. PAUL, MINN.) – John McCain’s campaign threatened legal action against the National Enquirer today for running a story about McCain’s running mate, Sarah Palin, allegedly having an affair with her husband’s business partner.

“The smearing of the Palin family must end. The allegations contained on the cover of the National Enquirer insinuating that Gov. Palin had an extramarital affair are categorically false. It is a vicious lie,” said McCain senior adviser Steve Schmidt.

“The efforts of the media and tabloids to destroy this fine and accomplished public servant are a disgrace. The American people will reject it.”

The Enquirer also alleges that Palin unjustly fired a public safety official while she was governor of Alaska, but the story is based entirely on unnamed sources. The Enquirer has also paid sources in the past to speak with them, something mainstream media outlets do not do.

“Sen. McCain and Gov. Palin look forward to discussing the issues that Americans care about, fixing broken government, creating jobs, making our country energy independent and securing the peace for the next generation by bringing the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan to a victorious end,” said Schmidt.

“Legal action will be considered with regard to this disgraceful smear.”

I don't think it makes a difference for the father. But, I admit, I don't know.

It came out during the past week that older man are more likely to have babies that are defective in some way......I can't remember what they said exactly. Frankly, I think it may be little too weird even for the Palins.
