Sarah Palin...

My verdict is that I like her. She is a regular woman, with regular problems, that came from a regular middle class family.

Of course, the media can only focus on the fact that she has a pregnant 17 year old daughter. Speaking from my experience at being a 17 year old girl, we don't always obey our parents, especially in the heat of the moment now matter how good our upbringing is. Those teenage hormones are a hard thing to combat. Bristol is her own person, in her own right and she is not the Republican Vice Presidential candidate, so give the girl a break. She seems to be handling the situation in an adult manner. It is very admirable that her family is providing their unconditional love and support. Making the best of the situation is what counts, because the past is the past and the future is now.

Someone mentioned to me today, that they couldn't support Sarah Palin because among other things, her husband has a DUI on his record. The DUI was in 1986 when he was 21. Again, he is not the candidate! Plus, Obama has openly admitted that around that same age he was doing blow and smoking reefer. Hmmmm, weigh the two. I would definitely have to say Sarah Palin wins that one.

Now, there is that sticky situation with her brother in law. We will have to see outcome of the investigation. At this point, I am still inspired by a regular woman, with regular problems, that came from a regular middle class family.
