You must remember how hated Rasmussen
was in the media. They always had Trump
very close to Hillary all summer, and the
media laughed and mocked. Their polls
had Her up by double digits.

Remember the big Irish betting firm
(Paddy Power?) that was so convinced
by the polls that Hillary would win
that they closed betting weeks before
the election and paid off all the Hillary
wagers. If they had listened to Rasmussen,
they would have made a ton, nobody was
betting Trump.



Dick Morris is only one I heard mentioning the big thing with the "generic" polls. Democrats need a fairly large generic lead as Democrats are so much more concentrated. Take Pennsylvania as the best example. If you do a random call across the population and get (made up number here) Democrats + 5 you might really have Democrat + 30 in Philadelphia but the rest of the state dead even.

If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose.

Alex Jones is a national security risk, as he's revealing official government secret programs like manufacturing the fake Newtown shooting to collect all guns, and adding radioactive isotopes to jet fuel to manipulate the weather, and the ability of the government to control tornados.
You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really?

The Costs of Motherhood Are Rising, and Catching Women Off Guard

"College-educated women in particular underestimate the demands of parenthood and the difficulties of combining working and parenting, new research shows."

Maybe because college-educated women were more fed the idea that they could "have it all" when reality is they cannot, choices must be made?

Choices must be made and paid for.

The choice for motherhood is not all that difficult, its the wet diapers, disrupted sleep, constant crying, germs, etc. that add to the burden. Women who opt for motherhood need wives but generally do not get them.

Women bought what feminists sold about "having it all." Can't have it all, you are right about choices. Feminists generally hate motherhood. The mother *is* the wife. If said mother does not like that role, do not be a mother.

Feminists hate motherhood? Probably true. Apple pie is rather over rated also. Just don't ever admit that in front of a camera or microphone.

The mother is the wife? In many societies, no. Extended families relieve the burden of disrupted sleep and household chores. Churches often provide some relief too. Food preparation, laundry, cleaning. Women who are able to hire nannies, nurses, gal Fridays, whatever they are called to share the burdens of motherhood. People who have the resources often make use of them, the financially and socially strapped are unable to find much, if any, help.

I think its Finland that provides a Box for new mothers full of useful items and a sum of money to draw upon for awhile.

Of course they cannot admit it. Modern feminists are seriously disturbed individuals in many ways.

Sorry, but even with help such as this if you want to be a mother the burden is on you. Nature can be inconvenient.
