'Family Matters' - the making of a likely disaster.

(And I'm not talking about Gustav.)

Ok, I now think that John McCain's finished. Just when I said there was no fun in this election.

Why? Here's why - cos of his Veep pick's conservative 'family values', or worse - her preaching them. I guess this is what the 'abstinence theory' does. Nice.

And nicely worded:

Sarah and Todd Palin issued a statement saying they are "proud of Bristol's decision to have her baby and even prouder to become grandparents."

"Our beautiful daughter Bristol came to us with news that as parents we knew would make her grow up faster than we had ever planned. As Bristol faces the responsibilities of adulthood, she knows she has our unconditional love and support," the Palins said.

Anyone else agree?

Senior McCain campaign officials said McCain knew of the daughter's pregnancy when he selected Palin last week as his vice presidential running mate, deciding that it did not disqualify the 44-year-old governor in any way.

Rrright.

This was to win over the conservatives? With the mom(s) of the year.
