If you were facing the same family issues as Sarah Palin would you have accepted John McCain's offer to run for vice president?

So far 60 / 40 in favor of the NO votes!

1. DU this poll! The bad-parent angle will ultimately be what does this ticket in, IMO.

5. It's not the magazines that are on "our" side...

...it's the number of AMerican people who don't think a VP with a newborn with special needs should be elected, imo.

6. I am not sure what the DU vote for this poll should be. I certainly don't think being the mother
of an infant with special needs should disqualify her from being VP. Would we say the same thing if her husband had been selected for VP? I mean, as long as the woman is at home taking care the baby like she is supposed to do, surely the husband is still allowed to work, right?

I can only imagine what DU members would say if this was the Dem candidate and Republicans were saying this.
