Politics or Family; What will Palin give second priority to?

I have yet to come across a discussion of whether Palin can do a good job as a VP (and so, possible President), and a new mom of a child with challenges, and a mom whose young daughter is pregnant. I'm a father of 2 kids and know how much energy it takes to parent and work. I don't think I could be a good parent and give the attention and energy it takes to hold such high political office. Ms. Palin has a very full plate. What will she put second?
