I imagine most of the office raffles were weighted towards that result. What is always entertaining is finding out how the NK news media spins it.

finally...
the 'War On Women' thing for democrats is OVER! DEAD (for now) A moment of silence, please, for a talking point that was taken too soon. The “war on women” began its life in a February 2011 House speech about abortion. After a short life as a Democratic hobby horse, it died during the second week of April 2012. The cause of death: Rosengate, the latest and least explicable battle in the Umbrage Wars. On Wednesday, in her capacity as a CNN political analyst, Democratic strategist Hilary Rosen laughed at Mitt Romney’s claim that he stayed in touch with the economy through his wife, Ann. “His wife has never actually worked a day in her life,” said Rosen. Over the next 24 hours, the Romney campaign managed to make Democrats—including First Lady Michelle Obama—stop what they were doing and denounce Rosen, who does not work for the Obama-Biden campaign or the Democratic National Committee. “The issues of stay-at-home moms and women being hurt by the economy are not good turf for [the Democrats],” explained RNC deputy communications director Tim Miller. “Their ‘war on women,’ which was milked for weeks, is definitely no longer. They have the woman problem right now.” http://www.slate.com/articles/news_a..._.single.html# |

Nice try but one party have all theirs toes jammed firmly in their collective mouths over women's issues and women's rights in comparison to sticking one toe in their mouth.
Plus, is it really demeaning stay-at-mom types when we wonder if a millionaire stay-at-home mom has the same issues as a $30K/yr total income stay-at-home mom? It was a .22 bullet versus the .50cal full-auto fire from the various GOP state legislatures and their laws (like Arizona's laws passed this week). Seriously, its a silly comparison between the two -- and it was dumb of the Dems to spend more than one minor spokesman on the response.
