Madeline Holler is a writer and mother of two. Each of her children gestated during one of the last two hotly contested presidential elections. She is familiar with the doubt pregnancy brings, especially during an election year, about whether it's wise to bring children into this world. She has found that it is. Madeline is watching the 2008 presidential campaign with a mixture of glee and dread from her home in Long Beach, California. Send tips to politicalnanny@babble.com.
