“I was 40 years old. I had a life... I didn’t want to do that."

Yeah that's pretty much the standard reply when someone hates the guy who won -- the right people didn't vote!

They could have had 2 million, 3 million, however many registered voters exist in New York and he would have won, and not by a small margin either.

 

Yes. You're wrong.

 

It's fun watching the denial act of those who simply can't admit they're wroooooo... wroo...

The "nobody actually liked him" claim has been cut to shreds, but ain't no way Ragu's admitting it.

 

Anyhoo...


A friend of mine has shot and editted a movie in which several dozen moms of all ages and walks of life give interviews...by name, showing their kid pictures...and talk about how having a kid was the worst thing that ever happened to them.

Several of these moms even talk about the elaborate ways they've fantasized about killing their kids and getting away with it.

I've seen some of the footage and it's fascinating; with any luck, it will find a distributor or a network soon, as I'm convinced it will spark a helluva national conversation.

 

Blame Marissa Mayer.

Anyway, the Post, like with the Trentonian, only needs to draw the sliver'est of parallels to be able to blow out a hammer hed like that. All you need is one editor to say "If you read between the lines of what she said ... " and boom, you have The Line.

 

Not sure what national conversation would be sparked. Without having seen the footage, it sounds like a bunch of moms who were never truly ready to be moms.

 

"Fantasized about killing their kids and getting away with it" would add some novelty to the old bitching-about-kids-on-the-playground, I believe.

 

Well, a national conversation about postpartum depression. Or a national conversation about American public policy is supportive enough of the needs of new mothers, particularly working mothers.

 

I twice heard speak a woman who killed one child and tried to kill the other, once with my mental health legal clinic and once in a related class.

Quite an experience.

 

We can't even have a national dialogue about guns or mental health after 20 kids are shot dead and you want us to have one about PPD?

Yeah, we'll get right on that with conversating.

 

I have a feeling buyers remorse will set in very soon, if it hasn't already.

 

He would win in a landslide again tomorrow.
