		<description><![CDATA[By my count, there were at least six mocking comments made about community organizing in last night&#8217;s speeches [Mark Ambinder says it was four].   Which, in retrospect, may not have been a good idea. Here&#8217;s the reaction:

But even those who acknowledge that teenage marriage is a risky proposition say  it is a healthier choice for a mother and her childhood than single parenthood,  even at 17. &#8230;

Sarah Palin is indeed the mother of the four-month old son Trig.  Her 17-year-old daughter Bristol is not Trig&#8217;s mother.
