I mean Track is 19 and about to be shipped off in a few weeks.
So unless mothers now carry babies for 2 years instead of 9 months there is no way that the baby is not Sarah Palin's unless someone has better proof than that blog.

The poster asked if the likelihood of giving birth to a baby with down syndrome increased with age and I put up information that answered his question and showed his supposition was correct.
Are you arguing the fact that the rate of prevalence doesn't goes up with age?
I wasn't arguing about who gives birth to more more babies with down syndrome because obviously since mothers in general are much more like to be younger than older the overall numbers would be skewed to show that many more more babies are born with down syndrome to younger mothers.
What the poster asked was if the rate increased with age and it does.
And the fact that amniocentesis test was given should point out that its more likely the mother of the baby was over 35. The amnio test has the slight chance of causing a miscarriage so its more likely to be given to mothers over 35 because the risk of genetic defect is much higher when a women gives birth over 35.
No, I'm not arguing anything. I know about rates of Down Syndrome and blah, blah, blah. I guess my question - What's the point? - was more for the original poster, who seemed to be suggesting that higher Downs rates in older women is indicative that this is Palin's baby.
I really wish the Left would not pull the shit. True or not, it's the bullshit Karl Rove kind of politics that should supposedly separate the two parties. This is how Republicans have won the last two presidential elections. Stuff like this should NOT be how Obama wins.
I agree 100%.
But keep in mind this is all some random blog at this point. It's not like the Obama campaign is holding press conferences about this or anything.
And I'd hope they wouldn't, especially after Obama's speech where he said he wanted politics to no longer be about personal attacks.

You are right, but if it gains to many legs it can still hurt. With certain blogs and media personalities having so much influence, I think much of the general public still associates certain talking heads or bloggers as a reflection of the party. Who doesnt associate fox news with republicans? WHo doesnt associate the Huffington post or dailykos with the dems?
I didn't know it's a criminal offense to adopt your daughter's child. Assuming the wildly speculative allegations are true, which they aren't, then how would it be illegal to adopt your daughter's child?
Um, adoption is a LEGAL issue there chief and would first entail having the daughter admit that she was the mother of the child. IF the allegations are true, then what Sara Palin did is not adoption, but rather a lie!

But I should expect no less from the likes of the DailyKos. Pathetic journalism with no facts and ardent speculation. Anyone who believes this story is a moron.
We report. You decide. I'm sure you were just as sympathetic to John Edwards (ha!)
I love how Republicans shrivel, whimper and whine when given a taste of their own medicine. Go have a pill with your buddy Rush and I'm sure you'll feel better.

Well there goes this story, it's being announced right now that Sarah's 17 yr old Bristol is pregnant and having a baby. She also intends on marrying the father of this baby to be. This is from Fox News.

I don't know whether or not she is the 4 month old's mother, but I don't think just because her daughter is pregant now disqualifies her from being the mother of the 4 month old. The 2 kids would be a year apart---Irish Twins. That is, unless her daughter is currently 3-4 months pregnant right now.

Man who the hell knows this story more smelly as we go along here. Apparently McCain knew about this pregnancy and it still seems like political suicide choosing Palin but the maverick went ahead anyway.

I wonder if he really knew, or if they're just saying that know, so he doesn't look stupid. i read a report yesterday that said she wasn't vetted at all. A reporter called one of Alaska's major newspapers, looking for all the articles they have on her, since their archives are not online. the woman at the paper told the reprter that he was the first person to call and request their archives.

True he may not have known and is just covering it up. Things just aren't going very well and it looks like NOLA and the Gulf Region are going to fair well. So a complete regroup for the RNC appears to be needed to re-energize the party. Bush is on now dicussing how much better coordination on this storm has been.

Apparently, McCain wanted his friend Joe Lieberman to be his veep. But the conservatives would have none of that. In fact, Karl Rove apparently called Lieberman personally and basically begged him to turn McCain down if the offer was made.So Palin was plan B... which is probably why nobody did a very thorough job of vetting her.
Right now, I suspect McCain is calling Karl Rove on the phone saying "I told you so."

Politically, I don't really see this having any impact. Social conservatives are not going to bolt to Obama. I don't really see their grand plan for the disaffected-Hillary vote getting destroyed, either.

Yeah, but like it or not, it's a reflection. After all, the Swift Boaters were never officially connected to the Bush campaign, either.

Who doesnt associate fox news with republicans? WHo doesnt associate the Huffington post or dailykos with the dems?
I doubt he will, but based on his speech that's what he should do.
Hopefully it stays a random blog story and never gets to the point that he needs to worry about it.
