Will Sarah Palin accept the nomination as McCain's VP nominee?

@baybear...can you post the link that says mccain didn't know " about...a pregnant, unmarried, 17 year old high school senior and a husband with a DWI on his record (although 24 years ago)" the news i saw said mccain was aware of both situations. lets say he didn't know about the daughter even tho he claims he did. you don't think the hubby could hide a DWI from the vetting team do ya?

There's no link that I know of stating that he didn't know...I'm just saying that it doesn't say much for his vetting process if he didn't know more about her...and there may be more to come...

From what's come out, it seems that McCain claims he knew ALL of this before naming her...but I just don't see how he could go with her, particularly if he KNEW that she had an unmarried, pregnant, teenage daughter. Would he choose to put a family in this situation in the national news. You usually don't like telling your friends and family that your unwed teen daughter is pregnant, much less exposing her to the entire country.

I'm not even sure that Palin herself knew...would she choose to put her daughter and family in this sort of spotlight if she did know. AND if she did know, what does that say about her. Personally, if I were her ( and knew) I would have not accepted the naming because of my family. Who wants their teenage daughter's unplanned pregnancy broadcast nationwide?

I'm thinking that sometime this weekend, the teen said, "Mom, I need to tell ya something." And that's how we got here.

@baybear..all good points. she choose to accept the vp so she had to know it would come out. i doubt mccain forced her to accept. i'm not gonna pass judgement on her on how she raises her family. its not like teen pregancy is a rare occurence. don't know if you have kids, but most parents support their children no matter what they do. i would think a mother would know her daughter is pregant, especially since the press in alaska knew. anything is possible i reckon.
