Todd Akin defeated himself......lots of lessons there.

“Todd Akin defeated himself......lots of lessons there.”

No kidding! In addition, he was McCaskell’s “handpicked” opponent! We should not have lost that seat. She was on the ropes! Either of the other candidates would have whipped her ass. Now we have her for six more years. Just a damned shame! Ditto for Mourdock!

Horse Puckey. Karl Rove, Ann Coulter, Mitt Romney, et al., defeated Todd Akin. They drove the knife deep between his shoulder blades. And even today, well past the election, they still delight in slashing at him. (Just heard Ann Coulter at CPAC once again stabbing this fellow conservative in the back.) If we had stopped listening to the GOPe agents and listened to Todd Akin instead, we wouldn't have McCaskill today. That's the *only* lesson worth taking from that fiasco. I'm done with GOPe. I hope you are too.
