I wasn't saying it will affect Democrats. I was saying, if anything, the Republicans should be proud that she kept it and is being responsible about it. Almost all Republicans are pro-life, and as pro-lifers, they should look to the positive and not dwell on the fact that's she's pregnant so young.

I'm not a Democrat because I'm pro-life. Abortion and Gay Rights are my main issues and being pro-life is what is tying me to be a Republican. Besides, overly Conservative Republicans will already be put off because Palin is female, I don't see this taking a big shock effect.
