I have to admit it would be nice to finally have a disability advocate in the White House, though.

Wow, you are a cynic. Candidates familes join them on stage after acceptance speeches. I don't know why the Palins should be any different and why people are getting bent out of shape over this.

I know.

Notice I didn't suggest that Palin would treat him differently, but that the McCain staff would. I think that's true.

Different how? Maybe put him on a leash? In a cage?

I gather that Ms. Gordon the cynic thinks McCain would probably try to keep trig off stage and out of the public eye. Personally I didn't mind trig; it was calculus that got me down.

If you don't like calculus, you should use tartar-control to control plaque buildup.

I know they had a real tatar problem in Asia a while ago, but I don't think they have been around here lately and they certainly aren't giving any plaques out for it.

That would be helpful ... the whole family except the retarded child on stage. Even the cynic in me has a hard time believing McCain would be that dumb.

You have it all wrong. The tater problem was in Ireland and it forced their people to move over here.
