And that to me is more important than any office, and job, anything else out side this family. Do you not see how many times you contradict yourself?

That last sentence is exactly what I would say, followed by, "Governor of Alaska is more success than I ever dreamed of, so we'll be happy out of the lime light".

How can you say you're all pro-family values and then say it would destroy your son to know that he kept you from success - success being that next rung on the career ladder. I always thought the democratic party's measure of success was balancing a career with a family without forcing parents to abandon their children for a job, not glory hopping up the political chain.
