I’m looking on a more positive side - that he’s not going to be a problem nor a useful media weapon for campaign 2012 for whatever reasons....

It could be he is trying to manipulate Bristol into dropping the child custody case. He does owe Bristol $13,000 in back child support and about $1,700 a month now.

To be honest I don’t trust him one bit.

Until he is offered big bucks in 2012

I'm pretty cynical about this punk's motives---especially if he is still palling around with Obama operative Tank Jones.

Still, as suggested in the post above, Levi may be feeling some pangs of regret as he gets older, with respect to his son, and Bristol may have indeed made the apologies a condition of greater access. I can see that happening, and I can see also her still wanting Tripp's real father around as a positive thing.

But, before he can re-earn the the Palins' trust, he'll need to publicly disown every one of his recent liberal associates, get his GED, and then probably join the military to make something out of himself so that he can properly support Bristol and Tripp.

Don’t you know the left and the media are just livid about this. LOL
