Where's the news?
Obama is scared of everything and anything the republicans might say.
Of course they won't listen. It has been stated quite clearly before that it is appropriate political strategy for the politician to take the high road while the followers gleefully wallow in the mud like the mindless pigs they are.http://www.cnn.com/2008/POLITICS/09/01/obama.palin/index.html?eref=rss_politics

LOL...
But in this case he is correct. Going after the kid of a politician as the far left bloggers did is NOT going to do him any good. Kids are off limits. The spouses are as well (provided they are not out campaigning)

Doesn't change the fact the Mr. Scaryman is afraid of shadows that lean to the right.

He’s being very classy about it, just as he should be. Let her be hacked to pieces by others. He should stay above it. He’s playing this just right.
He scared McCain so shitless with his convention speech, that McCain made this pick.
Why dont' you give him some credit at least? I mean, give it a rest bac, you are way overboard with the obama bashing. He literally made the McCain camp shit their pants and forced them into a panic pick, which we are now enjoying the fruits of.

True dat.
BAC, you're going too far w/ this. What response from Obama would have been appropriate for you? What could he have said to not be "scared"...should he have piled on?
As Darla said, his response was pretty perfect; let everyone else get dirty on this.

Maybe he should have released a statement calling the 17 year old girl a whore! Personally, it’s about Palin, and even more so, about McCain’s judgement in picking her. Frankly, I would not have accepted if my daughter was in that situation, because I think the resulting publicity, which is unavoidable, could destroy her. To be clear, I don’t believe a father should accept under those circumstances either. But, regardless, no one should be going after the child, period. And I have seen NO ONE call that child any names, or imply anything about her activities, which I for one, believe are perfectly normal anyway. Though of course, I would have had her on birth control.
I think he could have at least mentioned the fact that abstinence only programs aren't effective. Even when the most ardent of supporters are the parents.
This sums it up nicely:

Palin, a strong advocate of abstinence-only sex education, didn't address the fact that the just-say-no method of birth control obviously failed for Bristol - the way, studies show, it fails so many teens.
No way. His mother gave birth to him at 18, and I think they were married? But not sure, and either way, part of his life story is that he was raised by a single mom. Sorry, I think he played it just right. He looked like a moral leader, and I think he came off great.

I'd like to some semblance of fight in him. I agree that attacking her daughter is just wrong, but I think he should have definitely slid in something to the effect of, "This is why we promote more than abstinence only programs."
Do we have a link to her official position on birth control. I've been searching and haven't found one. As far as I understand it she is part of a pro-life group that supports the use of birth control.I think he could have at least mentioned the fact that abstinence only programs aren't effective.
