“Romney’s race if Obama can use Akin’s remarks against him?”
It’s my understanding that Akin has apologized. However, the RNC apparently is pro-abort.
That said, Romney can throw back the ‘above my pay grade’ 0bama statement. And his record on willingness to butcher live babies and even support killing children, per Sunstein’s complete lives system....which includes people above certain age of contributions, too. Then, there’s the blue pill argument that reflects the European strategy of simply removing care and pain meds, allowing someone to die ‘of natural causes.’ That will go over well with people of any age that need treatment, given that there are already medicine shortages.
Are we or are we not a country that supports life? I don’t see a reason to give the Party of Death an inch on this.
The GOP will pick up between 4 to 8 Senate seats this election WITHOUT MO. This is a waste of time and effort. Time for the Conservative/GOP movement to quit letting the Democrat propaganda machine divert and distract them with these non stories.
The dominate issue is still the Economy
While I didn’t and couldn’t vote for Scott Brown I did stand with him to replace Kennedy. That said, ever since I’ve heard self righteous lip flapping about how we conservative “purists” need to compromise only to see the “moderates” we have supported turn around and screw us.
The reality is that moderates never have any intent of compromising with conservatives. They only compromise with their friends on the left. The sooner conservatives figure the lie out, the better.
Moderates are lying, manipulative, bottom feeding scum.
” You all just don’t want him in the Senate.”
No, its not that we do not want him in the Senate.It is that we do not want him RUNNING for the Senate because off the toxic fumes he is now throwing off for the rest of the national party through his stupidity.The damage is caused with his running over the next 10 weeks. No one is going to give him any campaign money except a few diehard evangelicals.No major politican, no conservative commentator, no one endorses him Yet the media and the national Dems will be pounding the national Republicans using Akin as the battering ram.
I’d love to see that happen. I just don’t see how it does. If he were smart and agile enough to make it through the next couple of months to a win after this, he would have been smart and agile enough not to say what he did how he did in the first place.
“No, its not that we do not want him in the Senate.It is that we do not want him RUNNING for the Senate because off the toxic fumes he is now throwing off for the rest of the national party through his stupidity.”
Exactly! He will be gone in two weeks.
I would have voted for him last week, but not now. Not after seeing the way he handled the question, not after seeing the way he handled the controversy that followed.
Sometimes I wonder about the folks here on Free Republic. Have you collectively lost your moral compass?
How is compounding one horrible crime (assault rape) with another (murdering an innocent little life) justifiable. And, I am a woman, a mother of four, with 2 daughters.
If a woman becomes pregnant because of an assault (legitimate) rape, she should receive all the counseling and support she needs, and it is her right to decide whether to keep the baby, or give it up for adoption.
A supported and admired right CAN make up for a horrible wrong. And, I am not opposed to the death penalty for the rapist. I consider that self-defense, not murder.
What has happened to you all. If I lived in Missouri, he would get my vote, even though he should have used the term “assault”, to distinguish this from “consensual”.
The only time I would support abortion is for a dire physical (not psychiatric) danger to the mother’s life. This kind of emergency, such as an ectopic pregnancy is very rare, fortunately.
So then the GOP establishment is willing to shoot itself in the foot and lose the Missouri Senate seat rather than support him and win it.

So then if the election were tomorrow you would be voting for McCaskill???
Propaganda are more powerful when they have a poster boy. Akin is now the poster boy for the liberal propaganda that the GOP is engaged in “War on Women”. He makes it easier for them as long as he is still a Republican candidate.
LOL... you are using Dhim’s method of demonizing people... nowhere did I state anything about voting for McCaskill, which, btw, at this moment—beyond some Freepers like you—is the main supporter of Akin. Together with the liberal media.
I believe some Akin supporters are happy that the controversy might turn the election into about abortion in the case of rape, not the economy. For them, anything about anti abortion is the only thing that should matter in any election.
I live in Missouri, and I echo that statement.
But you would not vote for Akin and in withholding a vote for him you would be tacitly voting for her. Right???
