For picking the best possible Vice President candidate possible to ensure Barack Obama's takeover of the White House.
Sarah Palin...You are NOT the mother!!!!
There seems to be a scandal brewing in the McCain/Palin republican presidential camp. Word on the web is that Vice Presidential nominee Sarah Palin in keeping a little secret from us folks in the good ol' U.S. of A.
The choice of Sarah Palin as VP nominee came as a surprise to pretty much everyone who follows politics. She is the governor of Alaska, nobody has ever heard of her, and John McCain had only met her one time prior to selecting her as his running mate. On paper, Palin comes across as a very conservative republican with strong family values and morals. She is a member of the NRA and does not support a woman's right to choose. She is married with what appeared to be five children of her own. The youngest of her children is 4 month old Trig, who suffers from Down Syndrome.
Now here is where things get a little tricky. Palin has a 16 year old daughter named Bristol. Bristol is a high school student who many sources are now saying is the real mother of the 2 month old baby.
Checking with the Anchorage High School that Bristol Palin attended, reporters were given word that her family had taken Bristol out of school due to contracting infectious mononucleosis. The amount of time Bristol was absent shifts from five to eight months.
Mono can last anywhere from two weeks to three months, but an eight month infection is a freak oddity. Yet it remains a common excuse given by girls in private & Catholic schools around the nation when pregnancy comes into play. Not the first time, not the last time.
The final point of interest is that Trig Palin has been diagnosed with Down's syndrome (aka trisomy 21). This is an interesting point, as chances of having offspring with Down's Syndrome increases from under 1% to 3% after a mother reaches the age of 40. However, 80% of the cases of Down's Syndrome are in mother's under the age of 35, through sheer quantities of births in this age group.
