not saying that Gov Palin cannot do it with 5 kids it is just going to real difficult doing it. I am a single mother of one and it is hard...and do you really think her husband is going to stay at home and raise 5 kids and a grandchild by himself while she is going around the country...like my mother always tell me a man will only do so much when it comes to kids...her husband is going to get tired of being a single parent (because that is what he is going to be if she wins) and then her marriage is going to be in trouble and if she is willing to risk all of this then more power to her...i agree with bmorebrown it is no love like a mothers love...

He's not raising the grandchild---the mother and father of the baby are.

And you know, these folks have a pretty solid marriage. Any man who's committed to his marriage will easily step up to the plate and do what he needs to do to keep his family together--it's called commitment, it's called integrity, it's called honest to God love.
