Bailing water off the Titanic. If you ever have to release an ad to reassure voters that you know rape is bad, you’re already sunk.

Apparently Akin is staying in. Yeah, let the Dims set the agenda that’s the ticket.

Glad that he’s staying in the race. I’m disgusted by the overreaction by Republicans to it.

Wanna' bet which story gets more press: This on or the one about Kerry Gauthier having homo sex with a 17 Y.O.?
The Kenyan must go.

In the words of that remarkable and sagacious statesman, Al Sharpton, “Resist we much!”
Ego will only buy you so much in this vale of tears. This was a giveaway, we as a nation will be saddled with Claire McCaskill for six MORE years.
But the effects may go far beyond just the loss of a single Senate seat (which Republicans, at this point, can ill afford). It also gives permission to the money backing Clair McCaskill to double down on their efforts to give her a totally illegitimate margin of victory. And the momentum thus generated stands to wreck a lot of other Republican campaigns, to no good effect for anybody (not even the Democrats themselves).

The guy is a bit stupider than your average Republican Senator such as Goober Graham and Church Lady Orrin Hatch, but just stupid enough to fit real nicely with that stupid bunch of Democrat Senators.
The only thing the Senate does anyway is obstruct the will of the electorate and put on a big show when confirming drama queen Manchurian candidates to the Supreme Court like Dubya and Rove's treacherous pick, John Roberts.

Why are so many Republicans against a pro-life conservative politician? Is it because he reintroduced the abortion debate (with his misspeak) which Romney was so “cleverly” was hiding?

This won’t help. If you are having to defend your position on rape, you are not going to win. This ad will probably lose him more votes. He should have kept his big mouth shut in the first place!
