Not only is this guy going to blow his lead with this statement but this may reverberate among the national press and other Dem candidates for days painting all Republican candidates with the statement.You know the press is going to ask Romney if he agrees with the candidate’s “legitimate rape” comment to try to tether him to it. We do not need Republican candidates supplying the DNC with fodder for their war on women narrative grist mill.
If Akin can’t get past this within 48 hours, the Missouri GOP MUST pull a Torricelli and yank this idiot from the ballot.
This is entirely a self-inflicted and stupid error of massive proportions.
Throw him under the bus and nominate Steelman.
The Senate is more important than Mr Akin. WE deserve better.
All he had to do was keep his damned mouth shut.
