I look at who may be McCain's veep, in this week's North Star column.
Posted by Stephen Silver at July 7, 2008 02:54 PMAs a male primary-care parent, I'm particularly sensitive to language about work/life balance in the media. I'm curious if you would have made any mention of disabled dependents or number of children as a con for a male candidate. Why should it matter for Sarah Palin?
(Also, according to Wikipedia, she has five children.)
