That's a very good question which is the norm for you. I don't know. But, I do know that Akin can't win and it really pains me to see this race go by the board for the conservative cause in the Senate.
While I fully support the pro life movement, I believe that conservative control of the U.S. Senate is essential in order to advance that agenda. In this race, I see that the pro life crowd has put their own personal agendas ahead of the larger objective: getting control of the Senate out of Harry Reid's hands. It's just another illustration of why politics is such a nasty, disgusting business that really decent people want to avoid at all costs.
BTW did you happen to see this about Moberly, Missouri:

Free Republic is a pro-life group. Why are you ridiculing us? Are you with us or against us?
