Levi and Bristol at the Republican convention in September. (Paul Sancya/AP) Levi Johnston, the fiance of Sarah Palin's daughter, has quit his oil field job amid questions over how he got the electrical apprenticeship without a high school diploma, the Anchorage Daily News reported. An Alaska radio talk-show host had raised the issue, suggesting that the governor might have helped him. Palin denied it, and Johnston's father told reporters it was his own work with the contractor that helped the 18-year-old get the job. Still, Keith Johnston said he advised his son to resign and start working on his GED. Johnston's fiancee, Bristol Palin, also 18, gave birth to their son, Tripp, last month.
