If Michele was running for something, I'd be critical- but she's not, her husband is. I'm not sure what you are asking. I don't see the contradiction. Having this boy up on stage to shake McCain's hand because he knocked up a girl is rewarding him, and believe me, that's the way teens are seeing it, if they know about this. I am upset by the amazing REWARD this young man appears to be getting- and what I mean is, teens love attention, and imo it is a big mistake to give so much attention to this man. He could have been included in other ways in a normal family, but of course politically, for this family, they needed him up on stage. Unfortunately I don't think they sent a good message to America's teens. The SEPARATE issue, is that I think you stay home and take care of your family when you have problems. I don't think you just pat your 17 year old daughter on the butt and say "have a good life with that teen husband of yours." I think it will take some family work to make that marriage work. That's just my opinion- but I'm sticking with it. I ALSO think that a new baby needs its mother- whether that mother is Hillary, or Michele or Palin. If you can clarify what you think the dilemma is in what I said, I'd appreciate it- but I'm just not seeing it.
