Yes I saw your post. I believe you but that doesn't make her an expert on autism. I doubt that at, what, 5 months, he has been diagnosed with autism. And besides, her husband and kids probably have more real experience with her sons problems as a child with downs. I don't mean this as a put down of her for not being with the child since I believe her husband and daughters can do a good job with Trig. I just think McCain was stretching with his comments. And it is obvious that they all adore him. (he is a cutey for sure)
