The 2nd happiest man in the world...

...after last night, I reckon, would have to be Levi Johnston. You remember him: The 18-yo ice-hockey-playing fiance' of Bristol Palin, the (now) 18-yo daughter of ex-veep candidate Sarah Palin, and father of Bristol's unborn child.

So why should Levi be happy? Well, just think about it.

Had the Republican candidates won the White House his life would be a living nightmare. To be married under the baleful stare of a moose-hunting Sarah; watched like a hawk by the media waiting for him to mess up; the Republican Party daring him to mess up; and the Palin clan tapping their freshly cleaned hunting rifles hoping he'd mess up I don't think ANY new husband, let alone one getting married to his very pregnant high-school classmate after professing to all the world "I don't want kids." on his My Space page, could possibly cope.

Yep, I'll bet ol'Levi is breathing just a little bit easier today.

Of course another reason Levi may be the second happiest guy in the world is now he doesn't even need to get married! I strongly suspect they had no intention of marriage until McCain's senior moment vaulted the Palin clan into the spot light. After all they had known for months prior that the 17 year old daughter had been 'with child'.

So let's see how those Republican family values play out! And I put my money on Levi being out of the picture.
