I may not be a very big Obama fan, but I think he handled this pretty impressively:
(quoted from an article on CNN)
"'Let me be as clear as possible,' Obama said. 'I think people's families are off-limits, and people's children are especially off-limits. This shouldn't be part of our politics. It has no relevance to Gov. Palin's performance as governor or her potential performance as a vice president.'
Obama said reporters should 'back off these kinds of stories' and noted that he was born to an 18-year-old mother.
'How a family deals with issues and teenage children, that shouldn't be the topic of our politics, and I hope that anybody who is supporting me understands that's off-limits.'"
I stand put in my place.

I completely agree; his professionalism was really impressive. But... he still frightens me.
