My big concern is how damaging those “stupid comments” will be come November.

[nutmeg]

His comments were stupid. Stupid comments shouldn’t undo elections; otherwise, there’s no way Joe Biden would be in office, ever.

You're so right about that, but - as we all know - Biden (and all democRATs) will forever get cover from the lapdog MSM. No Republican - especially a conservative - will ever have that luxury.

[TornadoAlley3]

No, FRC is backing him, and personally, what I hear and see from folks in MO, if he stays he will win, if he goes and GOP put a RINO in his place, they will not vote. People not from this part of the country do not understand this base. Abortion is a BIG DEAL. They do not care what rest of GOP thinks of Akin.

I am conflicted about it all.

[IMissPresidentReagan]

It’s sad that statement has to be spoken. That should always be the standard for public officials.

[advertising guy]

lmao,

[MagUSNRET]

I firmly believe, that by November, people will not care what he said! The people of Missouri that votede for him before, I believe will vote for him now, because I believe the average Missouri voter has twice (if not far more) the common sense of any Washington politician or media whore!

the man MISSPOKE<M he didnt rape or murder anyone! GEEZUZ people get a grip!

[advertising guy]

if I was Rush, I’d get him on the phone as we type

[MagUSNRET]

And while I am on the top0ic....quite frankly, all of this piling on, only makes me want to vote FOR him all the more!

[Biggirl]

The problem is that, with Biden, for all of his stupid comments, they get from the old msm a “no biggie” response. But someone like an Akin, and the same old msm call for his head.

[Spirit of Liberty]

Mark Levin was saying last night that Akin shouldn’t step aside, either.

[nutmeg]

Rush just said that Akin must put his own interests aside and think of the best interests of both the people of MO and the USA.

Yes, now I'm liking what Rush is saying.

Rush must have received a TON of e-mails (and I'm sure he's following this FR thread) angry at him for not emphatically calling for Akin to step down. For the good of the country.

We MUST take this Senate seat from McCaskell. She's one of the worst 'RATs in the Senate, IMO.

[nutmeg]

Mark Levin was saying last night that Akin shouldn’t step aside, either.

Well, then this is one of those rare instances where I disagree with Mark Levin and Rush Limbaugh.

Rush now saying "it's more important that we save this country". He sounds like he's subtly calling for Akin to step down. He seems to be straddling the mushy middle...

[Biggirl]

Not surprised, after that near tragic shooting incident not too days ago, afterwards in D.C.

[rightwingintelligentsia]

I thought Mark said the opposite?

[lewislynn]

I heard the exact quote about "legitimate rape". I think some most of YOU pin heads got it wrong.

IOW, CLAIMING rape AFTER consensual sex is NOT a "legitimate rape"...Get it pinheads?

[Bramuce]

“I could have sworn I saw him at the Nats Braves game last night”

I saw that guy too. But then...naahh

[WilliamofCarmichael]

During the Clinton years Norman Liebmann called White House press conferences, reporter obedience training.

Some have suggested that Todd Akin simply say that he failed to mention the cant that makes the rape legitimate in the eyes of the MSM, universities, Hollywood, government, and most of the ruling class. The victim must be advised to "put some ice on that."

[Biggirl]

Also Rush is playing “catch-up” after a few days off.

[oh8eleven]

So you tune in and listen anyway?...Otherwise how would you know ?
Been listening since 1991, religiously. Noticed his shows became the same soon after Øbama became Prez.
I still tune in ... maybe three times a week ... but usually bailout within 15 minutes.
I love Rush for all he's been - he's talked the talk but now it's time to walk the walk.
That is, if he's not too busy golfing and selling tea.
