Debbie Blabbermouth Schultz must have missed the part tonight where Rep. Todd Akin clarified and said that is not his position

I don’t seem to recall Debbie condemning #OWS for the multiple rapes- and coverups of those rapes- that occurred there. In fact, Nancy Pelosi praised them for their “spontaneity”.

The damage this moron (Akin) has done is incalculable.

The damage being done on some other threads tonight is incalculable as well.

Please clarify.

What damage, people with common sense realizing that the Democrat controlled Media will milk this for everything it's worth?

Denial, it isn't just a river in Egypt. Akins bows out or every Republican running for Office will be stained with his idiotic comments.

Its going to be the new idiotic leftist litmus test for conservatives.

“So, when a woman gets raped, do you feel its possible for her to get pregnant?”

It’s a question that previously wouldn’t have warranted an actual response but thanks to this idiot, now its fair game.

If I don’t end up with a Ulcer by the time November rolls around, I’ll probably just be dead from a Heart Attack or Stroke.

Akin just decapitated any chance the GOP had of taking the Senate. The damage resulting from his statement resonates far beyond MO. The chances of Obamacare being repealed died as well.

Somewhere tonight, Harry Reid, his majority leader position assured, is breathing a huge sigh of relief.

Unforced errors kill us every time.

If he steps down, and someone with common sense takes his place, the damage can be minimized, however I don’t see this taking place without lawsuits by the Democrats, dragging this issue out further.

This is a big hit eitherway you look at it, ultimately the best thing for the GOP is to cut this guy off completely, exile him, let him go find a job in the private sector and stay out of politics.

If he stays on the ballot, he’s going to be an albatross all the way through until November.

I cannot believe this idiot has screwed up so bad. He could cost us the senate or worse, the presidency! Akin you idiot! In Google news, this isn’t headline anymore, but no doubt the outlets will highlight it tomorrow. Something big needs to go down tonight to overshadow it. Perhaps Assad getting killed or Greece leaving the Eurozone. The DNC is such a opportunistic rat nest that they’ll be milking this for money, not to mention Salad Crowley will bring it up in the debates. Akin should step down. Now.

This guy has to step down NOW. The sooner he does, the sooner this story can be swept under the rug. We cannot allow jack-o-lantern McCaskill to keep her seat and Akin will lose for sure. Somebody call Rove and get him to apply some pressure.

That’s just stoopit.

I’m glad for women’s rights. When they go off to work I don’t have to talk them so much and they get to spend all their money cuz they earned it.

It’s a question that previously wouldn’t have warranted an actual response but thanks to this idiot, now its fair game.

This line of questioning almost seems to suggest that the questioner is willing to proceed with that hypothetical as a personal challenge.

Akin is not just an idiot. He is a dirtbag who deserves what he gets.

Wrong. He is up 11 points. Claire has 39% support with women.
