Are you really asking that question? Yes, of course it's a big deal. Voters need to know her medical conditions, if any, to see if she'll be inhibited from doing her job fully.

There are several websites dedicated to the mystery behind Palin's medical history, and they appear to raise legitimate questions about her motives for not releasing her medical records. Those who have researched her recent history are convinced that the infant with Down Syndrome which Palin has been dragging from city to city is not her child, but her daughter's first child. Her medical records would make it clear that she hasn't been pregnant in the last several years, and that's why she doesn't want them released. Palin has been aware of the controversy surrounding her pregnancy since before "Trig" was born, yet she has done NOTHING to address it satisfactorily. Her refusal to release medical records just adds credibility to these suspicions. Even if she is this infant's mother, she is guilty of exploiting the child for political gain while exposing him to the disorienting travel and extreme noise of her political campaign.

You really believe people put a whole lot of stock in medical records? The only way it would matter is if she had some terminal illness. And I really dont see McCain choosing somebody who may die before him lol

It is only of those things candidates do as a matter of courtesy.

Otherwise I have personally viewed it as meh.

Or she is using her right of privacy and not releasing them. You are using the same logic people use when allowing the govt to break the 4th amendment. If you have nothing to hide then why are not letting us into your home?

She promised she'd release them two weeks ago. That time went by and not a peep. Clearly she's a liar.

Medical records are just a standard campaign tool that is used every election cycle. I guarantee you in 2008 there will be a few days of talk about how 'XXX' hasn't released his/her medical records. Meh.

McCain is the only candidate I can think of in recent memory where the release of his medical records has been a legitimate concern, considering his history of cancer, torture, etc.

everyone has their right to privacy, i'd agree with that. and honestly, i hadn't heard about this issue until this thread came up. But now Im curious as to why she hasnt disclosed when everyone else has. Also is this required, or is it something candidates are expected to disclose voluntarily? Have all candidates in previous elections disclosed their medical records?

Oh no, not a politician who lies! Golly gee my faith in the system is tarnished forever!

So you are OK with Obama's lie about public financing, but not this one. Gotchya.

I think the bolded really backs up my case about releasing medical records means nothing. If you didnt know, it didnt matter to you.

And i dont know of any requirement of the candidates to release their records.

Personally the only records I find worth discussing are their voting, tax, and policy records.
Tax is voluntary and the only reason I like to look at them is to see how much they donate to charity and what tax rate they are paying. Like to know if a politician follows his own rhetoric concerning giving to the poor and paying their fair share in taxes.

I guess setting conditions and failing to come to an agreement is a lie? Stop making excuses and diversions for this stupid twit on McCain's ticket.
