Levi Johnston interview, Levi Johnston Bristol's Fiance Says He's Excited About Baby

Sarah Palin and the McCain camp are on damage control, force Levi Johnston to "set the record straight" shooting down rumors that he's not excited about knocking up Bristol on accident and he was always planning on marrying his 17-year-old girlfriend in haste.

Levi Johnston, the "fucking redneck" who will "kick your ass" if you mess with him and doesn't want any kids, is speaking out, claiming he's really excited about his baby with Sarah Palin's 17-year-old daughter, Bristol. I honestly do believe he's excited and that he'll make a wonderful redneck papa. Levi has also already dropped out of high school. Things are off to a great start.

"We both love each other. We both want to marry each other. And that's what we are going to do.

"We were planning on getting married

a long time ago with or without the kid," added Levi, who has dated Bristol since his freshman year in high school and has her name tattooed on his ring finger. "That was the plan from the start."

The two - who are set to wed next summer - will welcome their baby around Dec. 18. "We're up for it. I'm excited to have my first kid," said Levi, who has dropped out of high school to take a job on the North Slope oil fields as an apprentice electrician.

"It's going to be a lot of hard work, but we can handle it. I'm looking forward to having him. I'm going to take him hunting and fishing. He'll be everywhere with me."

Levi said he doesn't "know anything" about Barack Obama, but added, "he seems like a good guy. I like him."

Of course, he is still rooting for John McCain -- and Palin.

"I just hope she wins," he told the AP. "She's my future mother-in-law. She better win."

I wish Bristol and Levi the best of luck. :)
