Joe McGinniss has an entire chapter on the Trig controversy in his upcoming book, "The Rogue." It will be fascinating to see if the MSM can maintain their radio silence on the issue given the prominence of the book. In it, McGinniss's position is basically mine:
I’ve declared myself as “trignostic,” meaning I am skeptical about Sarah’s story of her pregnancy with Trig and his birth, but I am not yet certain that it could not be true.
I think that's the fairest assessment of the facts we now have. But McGinniss, in reacting to the humdrum emails Palin is receiving and sending while in labor with a child she is, in her own words, "overwhelmed" with "desperation" about, and noting her weird prescience that her pregnancy would be rushed along by God to appease Piper's impatience for a new sibling, has now shifted a little. Money quote:
I’m still not convinced (i.e. persuaded beyond a reasonable doubt), but recent close readings of the newly-released Palin emails by Jesse Griffin at Immoral Minority and Andrew Sullivan at Daily Dish bring me closer to concluding that Sarah’s tale is an absolute and utter fraud and that Trig, in fact, was not her baby.
Blodget also agrees that the new circumstantial evidence makes clearing this up even more important. And that remains my position. The medical records Palin has in her possession can more than dispense with this question. It's never too late or too early to release them.
