obama isn’t going for the low blow

after news of gov. palin’s teen daughter’s pregnancy broke, i thought to myself (and to erin), i hope obama doesn’t use this. it’s typical to go for the groin shot in politics, use an advantage like a teenage pregnancy in the family (or a wife’s alchoholism, or whatever) to drag your opponent’s name in the mud.  if barack is everything he says he is, he wouldn’t stoop to those tactics.  well, fox news (!!) reports that obama says palin’s family is off limits, citing his own mom’s 18 years when she had him.

thank god.  this just goes to confirm my beliefs that obama is, in fact, awesome.
