As a concerned parent, should Palin step down from the VP slot to focus on what is far more important, family?

Does not ';family values'; require valuing ones family above all else to include personal ambition?As a concerned parent, should Palin step down from the VP slot to focus on what is far more important, family?
The situation shows two things;





1. Palin is not capable of handling parenthood and a demanding job like Governor of Alaska and certainly NOT the highly demanding job of US Vice President.





2. McCain's leadership and judgement is flawed in even considering someone who is not capable of balancing the demands of parenthood with their career. As a concerned parent, should Palin step down from the VP slot to focus on what is far more important, family?
So you're saying that NO mother should be allowed to have a job, or career if they have children. And I thought that Republicans were the party being accused of wanting to keep women barefoot and pregnant. Does your concern about parenting also reach Michelle Obama, or is it OK for her to be a ';bad parent'; because she agrees with you politically? Or maybe the Obama's just don't have any ';family values';. Evidently, they don't according to your statement.


You guys are really starting to show your true colors. It was fine for a mother to be a Senator from NY and run for president, as long as she is a liberal, but let a conservative woman do the same, and it's terrible. Can you see the INCONSISTENCY?
Would you be asking this question if it were a man in this position? I don't think so, Palin looks to have a very supportive family, and I am sure they are strong enough to get through this just fine. I think you sound a little chauvinist to me.
I have had the same thought myself. With the birth of a disabled child 4 months ago, the pregnancy of her unmarried 17 year old daughter, I think her claim of family values is questionable.
family isn't more important than country, is it?





God... country... family
No,no,no... please. Let her talk on family values to american people and teach them how to be a model parent...
Yes, but did McCain put the good of the country before political stunts in picking this person to begin with. Republicans are hypocrites.
Sure, Obama should do the same. He has two young daughters to raise. Or are you the old fashion type thinking only mothers should raise the kids?
she is doing what is best for her family...should presidents and/or VP's be single with no children...


always nosnod
Thats what her excuse will be when McCain throws her under the Straight Talk express
No. Obama has 2 little girls that need him. Why arent you asking if HE should step down?


Geez, Chi, why dont you give the lady a chance? I thought you were above all of this nastiness and ugliness. Most of you people never even heard of the woman a week ago and now you are all experts on her personal life.





ADD: Her husband is a full time stay-at-home dad. Michelle is not a stay-at-home mom. By your standards, sounds like the Obamas suck as parents even more.
