No.

If A's key is signed with B's key, and B's key is known to be valid, and you 
trust that B signs keys responsibly, then A's key is valid, period. Other 
signatures are completely irrelevant. Nobody can make a key invalid by 
signing it, no matter how evil or irresponsible or untrustworthy they are.
