      Blogger's Pursuit of Paternity Issue Verges on Vendetta

      (Newser) - Andrew Sullivan, blogger for the Atlantic , has come under fire for hammering John McCain’s campaign on an issue everyone else seems to have gotten over: whether or not Sarah Palin or her teen daughter Bristol is the mother of 4-month-old Trig Palin, Howard Kurtz writes in the Washington Post .
