The rumor which floated around the Daily Kos and other places where the crazy people who support Sen. Obama hang out (as opposed to places where the normal people who support Sen Obama hang out) accused Gov. Palin of engaging in a spectacularly aggressive coverup and falsification of her personal biography. That is false. The fact that Gov. Palin's daughter is pregnant is orthogonal to the original rumor, except that it completely disproves it.
I do think this will be a close election. Sen. McCain is a relatively compelling Republican, and Sen. Obama is a particularly weak Democrat. Those two things taken together may overwhelm what should be a very good year for the Democratic party.
