Let me say this early, and stress this. The fact that Sarah Palin is a mother of five, one of whom is only four months old, should not have an impact on the political discussion and campaign (though the attacks have already started).

Not one person would be questioning whether a man should be on the campaign trail just four months after having a child, and in the same way we absolutely should not question Sarah Palin for doing the same.

Attack Palin for her policies. It is really easy to do. But leave out the motherhood attacks.
