i think the candidates family only matters in so much as how it affects (effects?) policy, or if it illustrates how the politicians positions suck. or gross behavior. palin's kid got pregnant. palin is anti-abortion/sex-ed, and therefore there is relevance. but it shouldn't be about the kid so much as her policies, the kid is just illustration of the point.
if a candidates kid killed someone, or committed some other crime, are we supposed to ignore that behavior? just cause they're "a kid?"
only relevant issues involving the family should be brought up. otherwise, no, they should be left alone.
