Akin is not an appropriate Senatorial candidate because he is dumb. As in literally stupid; very modest IQ. The Democrats know this, which is why they put in 1.5 MILLION to support Akin against other primary candidates. Those defending Akin seem to think that it’s OK for conservatives to be presented by an idiot.

As for Rove, he has to resign...from what? He’s not a public official, nor is he running for anything. He’s not an officer of any publicly traded company. He does have a position in a private organization that is providing tens of millions to support conservative candidates across the country. NOBODY involved in that organization - and none of its donors - want him to resign. And if he does go, he takes his skills and his relationships with donors with him, and the money starts to dry up.

Is that what you want? And all to defend a certifiable idiot & his theory of the magic uterus?

If Rove’s opinions get stupid enough, he’ll lose his Fox job.

I must have missed Bob Beckel getting fired, then.

Yep. Rove has never enthusiastically backed a conservative, but has bashed many.

So old Bob needs to sink a little lower, I suppose. The bar is apparently pretty low.

You forgot Juan Williams and that liberal blonde chick, forgot her name.

Seriously, it’s important to listen and think about what others, including the wrong-headed, think. Sharpens all of us to defend our positions.

Lame, Chip. Stock answer to anyone who makes you think? Surely you can do better.

GeronL, you cannot defend your side, so all the can do it sputter and call names. You cannot form an argument, because you know you lost.

There’s a reason why, for example, Sarah Palin knew from the start that Akin is an idiot, and supported primary opponent Sarah Steelman. There’s a reason why Democrats ran 1.5 million in commercials to support Akin. Akin took an easy Senatorial pick-up that anyone with a brain could have secured, and made it into a dubious proposition.

The Democrats got what they paid for.

And you - GeronL - will support Akin, and thus support the continued Democrat dominance of the Senate, not for any considered reason, but out of some kind of emotional tribalism.

Karl Rove, perhaps, is suffering from the same narcissistic disease that afflicts many public figures. HE becomes more important than the People’s interest.

Rove probably supported Charlie Crist and Lincoln Chaffee too, right up until they switched. Rove should switch too.

Now this is justice!
Rove should’ve been made toxic after he failed to support Christine O’donnell after she won the primary. Rove’s got to go!

my side? I have a side?

How about this:

Akin is the nominee and we should support him no matter what because winning is more important than ideological purity at this point?

Does that sound familiar? Or maybe this only applies when RINO’s stuff their candidate down our throats? How come the RINO’s never follow their own advice for conservatives??

I don’t disagree with you there. But always remember, especially in television, that people are employed as long as they’re watched.

People who make asinine comments, like Rove did, will be popular as long as they bring in ratings. Regardless of what they actually say.

But Missourians have reelected Akin 6 times.

“What a bunch of weenies.
No one can take a joke anymore.”

If they had even a glimmer of a clue as to how much I am offended every damn day by rInOs and libs, they would hide in a closet.

Uhhh, no. It had to do with what I said in my first post about divine intervention, that’s all. No need to insult me. The post was directed to xins who knows very well my feelings on this matter from previous threads.
