conn8757: "I look at it a little different. Do you think if Michelle Obama had brought one of her daughters up on the stage that was 7 months pregnant, she would have been received the same way as Sara's daughter? I don't think so."

Unless I missed something, Sarah Palin's daughter being pregnant led to Sarah and family being dragged over the coals. IMHO, if it was Mr. Obama's daughter, (he is the candidate), it would have all been handled much more delicately lest any racial discrimination be detected. I believe Sarah Palin was attacked for being the mother with the pregnant daughter and it wouldn't have been an issue for the father of a pregnant daughter. In any event, to me it is a moot point. The children of candidates are not fair game and as Dr. Phil said on the Jay Leno show, they are not the public officials running for office and should be left out of the conversation. Period.
