One has to question the left’s strategy of of leveraging against the teenage pregnancy of Palin’s daughter:

Obama is on the record with his description of the unplanned child of a single mother as a ‘penalty.’ Palin’s assessment is that the decision to have the baby will require her daughter to mature more quickly and that the birth is anticipated by a loving extended family.

With this sort of contrast, the hysterical-attack strategy seems especially stupid.
