Republican Vice Presidential nominee Sarah Palin attempted to quietly have her daughter Bristol get married before news of her pregnancy leaked out, the NATIONAL ENQUIRER is reporting exclusively in its new issue.
Palin planned for the wedding to take place right after the Republican National Convention and then she was going to announce the pregnancy.
But Bristol, 17, refused to go along with the plan and that sparked a mother-daughter showdown over the failed coverup.

Isn’t the Enquirer that goofy “Bigfoot” and “alien” rag they have at the checkout stands for people buy to take home for their dog to pee on?
This slander boarders on libel! It's an outrage that the media is still fixating on this personal family matter.
Where do they get this crap!?
The cheapest of cheap shots.
no. They actually are the ones that tracked down the Edwards story. oops.
She had an engagement ring on at intro speech. The national enquirer if full of shit.
Not according to Bristol's boyfriend's mother!!!
They were already engaged before they found out she was pregnant!
i find this interesting as a blogger on obama’s campaign blog said a couple days ago that the enquirer was on it and it was all going to come out
how did they know that?
How come when they exposed John Edwards they were the newspaper of record, now they’re back to being a rag. We are officially a tabloid country....We have no collective conscience...I truly think we are in end times.
They make it up.
The "failed cover up" was an open secret in Alaska, so there was no story for the Enquirer to break in the first place. In the second place, how does the Enquirer know what the Palin's plans for/with their daughter were? There is no source attributed to this claim, so I guess we have to assume that this is one of those nasty little insinuations covered under "actual malice."
It's nice of the Enquirer to take credit for breaking the story, better still for them to fill in details to which they cannot possibly be privy; unfortunately, like most of what's in the rag, it simply isn't true.
"This is just a bonus," Johnston said.
I’m sorry. I didn’t pay any attention to that either. I didn’t give a —— about it. I guess it did titilate some though. Some people do need sumpin’ to read while waiting for their welfare checks.
Exactly. And Jesse Jackson's love child. They've got better investigative journalists than real newspapers these days.
It's obvious McCain/Palin weren't planning to announce this when they did. Doesn't matter to me, though. I'm still not voting for Obama.
They MAKE IT UP.
You have a point, but I don’t think what happened between mom and daughter is necessarily something you can pay to get good info on. Unless they have tapes/video.
Then they dish it up to stupid liberals no questions asked.
Wrong.
The Edward's story was well known to several news organizations, including the local Raleigh paper long before the Enquirer had anything to say about it. Most of them spiked the story either for Edward's benefit, or to spare his wife.
Cover-up? What cover-up? That’s like saying I covered up the fact that I had Italian for dinner last night. It can’t be a cover-up if its nobody’s business!
