NEW YORK - Bristol Palin, 17 and her boyfriend Levi Johnston -- whose buzz has infiltrated into politics this week -- made publicly appearance at the National Republican Convention yesterday night, where the vice presidential hopeful Sarah Palin, the mother of Bristol, gave her speech greatly expected in the party.



US presidential nominee US Sen. John McCain, R-AZ, (L) and Republican US vice-presidential nominee Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin stand on stage on day three of the Republican National Convention (RNC) at the Xcel Energy Center on September 3, in St. Paul, Minnesota. McCain will crown an unlikely political comeback when he formally accepts the Republican presidential nomination.

Bristol and Johnston have become a center of attention since Monday, after Sarah Palin, 44 who was named Vice Presidential hopeful by John McCain last week, announced her teenager daughter is five months pregnant.

Palin also said, her daughter will marry Johnston, 18, a hockey player at Wasilla High School whose MySpace page was pulled down after the buzz grew when he was found to be Bristol's boyfriend and the father of the baby.

Yesterday night, the young couple was present at the convention, holding hands, standing on stage and greeting supporters of John McCain. Bristol siblings, Track, Willow, Piper and the youngest Trig, made public appearance as well as they're father Todd.

"Two decades and five children later, he is still my guy," governor Palin said while introducing her husband to the convention. Later she introduced the rest of the family.

Sarah Palin is also governor of Alaska and has called herself a Hockey Mom, a nationwide community of woman that supports their children who play hockey. At the convention she joked about the topic.

"You know they say the difference between a Hockey mom and a pit Bull?," she asked? "Lipstick."
