News Flash - Levi Johnston speaks

Levi Johnston gave what appeared to have been a surprise, off the cuff interview this morning in his driveway. Here's a link to the AP article.

For our purposes, obviously, the most critical piece of information is that Bristol is due on December 18th. This would place the date of conception of the child right around the first of April, well before Trig's birth, and would make her right now around 31 weeks pregnant.

Very interesting. I had assumed that if she were pregnant, what we would see was an induction of an "overdue" Bristol around the third week of January, the Palin family claiming that she was 43 weeks when she was really 37 weeks. Given that there is about a six week period during which delivery is considered normal (37-43 weeks) I felt that they could just barely make this work. (Though any doctor that would be a part of this should lose his/her license and go to jail.) But that had been my guess.

Now, all bets are off. The point, however, is that the election will be long over before anyone knows for sure.

Another interesting note: one commenter on an older thread stated that in a speech either yesterday or the day before, Gov. Palin introduced Piper and Willow who were on stage, and then stated that "Bristol is traveling with us too." Odd. Very very odd. If she's there, why not show her? (Can anyone provide a link to this, either on YouTube or elswhere?)

We're still playing Hide the Teenager.
