Sarah Palin's political team was forced to do emergency damage control Monday after the former Alaska governor's daughter Bristol accidentally divulged on live television that her mother has undergone at least 15 abortions over the past 30 years. 'She's always telling me how special I am, especially considering the five or six babies she aborted before I was born,' Palin, 20, said during a CNN interview in which she was asked if she thought her mother would make a good president. 'Then of course there were the twins she aborted shortly after having me, another four abortions after Willow somehow survived hersbut anyway, she's a wonderful mom. She just gets pregnant a lot and doesn't always want to have the baby.' Palin also commended her mother's strength in carrying three babies with Down syndrome to term, and then even choosing not to give Trig up for adoption like the others.
