Redtailfox the 2008 election is exactly why she is a threat. McCain didn't get half of those votes on his merit. His campaign was going no where until she jumped onboard. So I am sure that the rest of these people on this list never had their kids do anything wrong. If her kids are getting an education on the road with the tutors she brought then what is the big deal about taking thme with her to campaign? The get to the see the country and she gets to see her kids. I am sure she is not the first politicion to do this anyway. If she was a man and did this its called looking out for your family but since she is a woman its called putting your poitical ambition ahead of your family. So with all of these trips that Michelle (which I am sure you think is just the greatest mom) is taking who is watching her kids? Teen pregnancey is a big problem worldwide so that is unfair criticism kind of like the media going after that girl and her ex-boyfriend or fiance or whatever he is. Imagaine if the media started to interview the obama kids classmates to see if they are doing anything bad in school, the left would be up in arms, but since its only palin its cool...
