Akin to get $800,000 in ads from Now Or Never PAC
St Louis Business Journal ^ | 110112 | Greta Weiderman

Posted on 11/01/2012 4:34:52 PM PDT by Fred

Now Or Never Political Action Committee will spend $800,000 on television ads for Republican Todd Akin, who is campaigning against incumbent Democratic Sen. Claire McCaskill, The Hill reports.

The group’s ad asks voters who “don’t agree with everything he says” to back Akin anyway, and it focuses on winning Senate control and defeating McCaskill.

“In the Senate, Akin will vote for Romney’s policies to get Americans working again,” according to the ad. “Claire McCaskill would fight Romney every step of the way. To avoid Washington gridlock and get this country back to work, our best choice is Todd Akin.”

Newt Gingrich: “If having made a mistake was grounds for getting off the ticket, Joe Biden would have to resign once a week”

The Kansas City Red Star published a poll with a 2 pt lead for McCaskill a couple of days ago. No doubt skewed like the rest of the media polls. Not looking good for her.

McCaskill has outspent him 10 to 1 on political ads and it is still a dead heat.

Yeah, and if you fire everyone from politics who ever said something stupid or wrong (paging Joe Biden), Washington DC would be a ghost town.

We have to win this race. Time to show the establishment and the liberals that we want conservatives in the senate. Unbelievable that Larry Sabato of Fox News has already claimed the MO senate race is in the bag for McCaskill!

According to Politico.com, Larry Sabato of the University of Virgina predicts the Senate will still be in the hands of the Democrats after Tuesday. Republicans need a net gain of four seats to take the majority away from the Democrats. Sabato predicts a win for McCaskill.

But Akin is not ready to end his fight. In a last minute push before Tuesday’s election, Akin and the Missouri Republican Party are spending $700,000 in television ads. A conservative PAC, Now or Never, tells CBS News it is spending $800,000 to support Akin. The group previously supported one of Akin’s primary challengers.

Yeah, you’re right, but all the same, Akin and for that matter, Mourdock as well were both dumber than a box of rocks to go where they did. It speaks to their fitness for office that the are not circumspect in choosing their words.

“Akin and for that matter, Mourdock as well were both dumber than a box of rocks to go where they did. It speaks to their fitness for office that the are not circumspect in choosing their words.”

Perhaps you’re right, but then Romney is dumber than two boxes of rocks to continue to maintain that socialized medicine was the right thing for him to push as a governor. It speaks to his fitess for office and he is not very circumspect in continuing to push that line. Nevertheless, I will hold my nose and vote for Romney in order to vote against the Kenyan Fraud.

Pro-Akin ads should state that McCaskill cast the DECIDING vote in favor of BOcare, and she will never vote to repeal.

This will move votes.

Akin has been a great congressman. He voted to repeal Obamacare 30 times while McCaskill voted for it; Akin voted against the Wall St Bailout ..McCaskill for it; Akin has an A rating with the National Rifle Assoc., A pro life rating; opposes the death tax and supports a balanced budget ammendment.
He is NOT dumb. He has a degree in engineering which is no easy task. He also has a degree in divinity which Algore could not even do..lol
GO AKIN

Glad to hear this PAC is stepping up to support Akin. I think Akin will take this race.

Thanks, Fred.
