Sarah Palin's 17-year-old daughter Bristol is five months pregnant. She says that she will marry the father.
According to an aide, Republican Presidential nominee John McCain was aware of the high school senior's pregnancy before making Palin his VP choice.
“Senator McCain knew this and felt in no way did it disqualify her from
being vice president,” said the aide. “Families have difficulties
sometimes and lucky for her she has a supportive family.”
The aide also stated that the decision to reveal the pregnancy now was based on rumors that Sarah Palin’s four-month-old baby is actually Bristol's. Guess they showed us.
“In the course of correcting that, we needed to get the truth out,” said the aide.
Sarah and Todd Palin issued a statement saying that they are “proud
of Bristol’s decision to have her baby and even prouder to become
grandparents” and asked the media to respect their daughters privacy. I'm guessing that won't happen.
According to CNN,"McCain's aide insisted a key point to keep in mind is that Bristol
decided to keep the baby, a decision “supported by her parents.”"
So, keep that in mind.
