Palin's Daughter is Pregnant

Given the conservative political views of Sarah Palin, including several public statements that she supports abstinence-only sex education, this is a bit of a shock. From Reuters via the New York Times

The 17-year-old daughter of Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin is pregnant, Palin said on Monday in an announcement intended to knock down rumors by liberal bloggers that Palin faked her own pregnancy to cover up for her child.

Bristol Palin, one of Alaska Gov. Palin's five children with her husband, Todd, is about five months pregnant and is going to keep the child and marry the father, the Palins said in a statement released by the campaign of Republican presidential candidate John McCain.

I wonder if this will have any impact on the support from conservatives?
