AND I'm completely with you--as I've said before--there's plenty to bury this woman without bringing her daughter into it.

It does expose the cracks. But to make political hay off some kids likely stressful situation looks really bad too. And in my opinion it's just wrong. It's not like the kid choose to be born to some fringe belief mom who thinks the earth is 6000 yrs old and science is crap.
Plus, yes there's a ton of crap already coming out on this women. Some of her first words to the nation have proved to be lies.
