The fact that her daughter is pregnant doesn't have anything to do with anything. (Okay, it's more proof that abstinence-only sex education doesn't work, but that's no surprise.)
The fact that McCain's campaign knew about it, and had responses ready for it - and that's the only potential issue with her that they knew about - is an issue for me. Either they didn't vet her worth beans, or they don't mind that she's flip-flopped on the Bridge to Nowhere and has a long string of ethics questions in her background.
There's plenty more that I find wrong with her from a policy standpoint. The Palin pick tells me something bad about McCain, as well: he's making fighter-pilot style, split-second tactical decisions - in an environment where that's the wrong model to use.
