McCain's aides said the pregnancy revelation was intended to quell rumors swirling on the Internet that Palin's infant son, Trig, is actually her daughter's. The Second picture shows Bristol holds her baby brother Friday as their mother is announced as McCain's running mate.
The news of Bristol's pregnancy comes just three days after Palin was introduced as McCain's vice presidential pick at a rally in Dayton, Ohio. She is the first Republican vice presidential candidate who is not a white man. She met McCain only once before the Arizona senator asked her to be his ruining mate.
However, McCain's opponent Barack Obama contends that this is a private matter and warns that any body in his campaign that make issue out of Palin's family drama would be fired.
