We've been asked why some comments posted later seemed to appear above comments posted earlier. The answer is that comments are displayed in a threaded view. In other words, it's possible for you to respond to a specific comment rather than to the overall conversation.
To illustrate....
- post X
- comment 1 (reply to post X)
- comment 2 (reply to comment 1)
- comment 5 (reply to comment 2)
- comment 6 (reply to comment 2)
- comment 3 (reply to comment 1)
- comment 9 (reply to comment 3)
- comment 4 (reply to comment 1)
- comment 7 (reply to post X)
- comment 10 (reply to comment 7)
- comment 8 (reply to post X)
Here, the comment numbers represent the order in which they were posted. The threaded display, however, lays out the comments as shown. (This is what we mean when we say threaded comments allow people to respond to a specific comment rather than to the overall conversation.)
To reply to a post, use the comment form at the bottom of the page. To reply to a comment, click "reply" within the comment (and your comment will be threaded to that comment).

What about her stand on Sexual Education at
schools?
I don't see how a woman who is against sexual education at schools can have a young daughter who is already facing adult-like responsibilities such as bearing a child? Sarah Palin is a great view for the public eye and she comes from a state with a small population and has done fairly well as governor (so i've heard), but I think that she is not ready to deal with a nation that is populated by millions of people- and its enormous diversity. She also cut down on teen-mother assistance in her state I believe, but since her daughter won't be needing any financial assistance, does anyone think that she will still cut down on these public necessities? Many women who agree with her views on family life tend to focus on only that aspect of her campaign, but what about the issues that the country is facing right now such as education, health care, the economy, etc. Is that not of much importance to McCain/Palin supporters? It will definitely be issues that she will have to deal with if she becomes Vice President and hopefully not, but if God wills it, maybe President. This was also a slap in the face for the Democratic party too, I mean, not only is she younger than Obama but has served less time as governor and will perhaps be first female VP (or President).
