The trouble is that IMHO, the weird rumors about Republicans generally turn out to be true, while the weird rumors about Democrats generally don't. Not because our politicians are inherently better behaved -- I think John Edwards proves us out on that, but because Republicans have a highly developed smear machine while most Democrats generally eschew rumormongering as 'below them'.
I actually don't think this is true, based mostly on the fact that it makes more sense for a 44 year old to be giving birth to a child with Downs' than a 16 year old.
But on the other hand, I'd neither be terribly surprised if someone eventually digs up hard evidence. Seems like something the Enquirer is probably all over... about ten hours ago.
