rob,
All politicians use their kids as props. Think of the photo of JFK with John John under the desk in the oval office. Apparently JFK didn't have any moral issues with cheating on his wife, now did he, yet he was portrayed as the perfect family man.
Don't be too quick to throw those stones at a parent for actions of the child. I do not like Palin as a VP for many reasons, but none of us know enough about her personal family life to blame her for her daughter's actions.
There are plenty of things to vilify her for that directly relate to politics. Criticize her for those things and leave her daughter out of it, like your candidate rightly suggested.
