Palin’s Teen Daughter Is Pregnant; New G.O.P. Tumult:

“Our people were not involved in any way in this and they will not be,” Mr. Obama snapped. “And if I ever thought there was somebody in my campaign that was involved in something like that, they'd be fired, OK?”

Mr. Obama said the pregnancy “has no relevance to Governor Palin's performance as a governor or her potential performance as a vice president.” He added that, “my mother had me when she was 18. How family deals with issues and teen-age children — that shouldn't be the topic of our politics.”

Obama walks the walk. The earlier quote by McCain strategist Steve Schmidt about the questions we ask of men and women is also worth considering.
