Sounds like he has it about right once again.
“....he put himself over that of the country at a time when we are trying to win the Senate with the country at stake.”
.
Duh. Can anyone think of ONE congresscritter who would put the country ahead of his own interests?
Levin, as usual, is on the money.
I predict a 50 point loss if Akin stays on the ballot.
its time we just go behind a write in candidate and support that person and put pub support money and endorsements behind the candidate, (Palin’s pick, of course) and ignore akin completely.
show some unity and balls.
push the point that akin was selected by the rat incumbent and spent money to insure his candidacy.
pubs need to get a grip on how to handle it.

Levin is now giving Priebus the business about supporting Akin since he is staying in. Telling the RNC Chairman you don’t concede that Missouri Senate seat.
Isn’t it obvious that Akin is a plant?
I heard the first five minutes . . . had picked up my 15 yr. old DS and he always wants to change the radio station and today he said I really shouldn’t hear that (I think there was a cuss word or two) and said NOPE I wanna every second as I’m very angry too. And then tried to explain how Akin was only thinking of himself and not the country.
Levin knows the Constitution, no doubt about that. His mistake is in placing it above the Declaration, which argues that the duty of any form of government is to secure the right to life.
The Constitution, then, is merely a means to an end. Levin here is revering the means at the expense of the end.
Aiken is a strong candidate will win this race by a mile and will be a strong advocate for Life and the face of the Pro Life Movement in Washington.
100% correct.
Mark is right on in that we must help Akin win the Senate. See Free Republic comments by Rebecca Kiessling for a thoughtful and convincing discussion about Akin's unfortunate choice of words, and, perhaps, put the controversy into perspective. The arguments on both sides of the aisle are shallow and emotional.

Support him? Like, make excuses for him? Or explain what he meant? Or site the Chinamouse theory? Not from these lips.
Akin and Huckabee -
As innocent as serpents, as cunning as doves
(Sigh...)
This entire episode has jaded me. From Obama to Levin to Cornyn to Romney to Gateway Pundit to (apparently) most FR posters: My verdict is BBs for balls — chickensh$t turncoats.
We whine day and night for elected officials who will vote their principles. Well Akin is one whose actual Congressional voting record is IMPECCABLY pro-life, and.... how loyal are we?
Well, he utters one stupid sound-bite — not maliciously, not angrily, simply stupidly — and we throw this loyal pro-lifer under the bus.
The hysterical, whining, hand-wringing I have heard and read is risible — Romney may LOSE! The Dems may keep the Senate! and so on.
I have news for you: Romney may lose and the Dems may keep the Senate regardless because the Pubs and so-called “conservatives” have shown that they dance to the Liberal media tune like good marionettes!
Anyone besides me notice that “conservative” Senator John Cornyn, head of the NRSC jumped onto the anti-Akin bandwagon shortly after Liberal Mass RINO Sen Scott Brown denounced Akin?
I am sick of Cornyn’s portraying himself as a conservative. Look at the track record of the NRSC under his tenure.
Mr Cornyn: You need to be primaried, Mr inside-the-beltway, chicksh&t, faux conservative. May another Ted Cruz rise up to take your place.
If the NRSC calls me for money, I will say “no thanks; I am giving directly to Mr Akin!”
My prediction — and my prayer: Akin wins in November.
Deo Volonte!
Larry Kudlow said that the GOP could run a well-known candidate as an indepedent and win the race the way Joe Lieberman won in Connecticut. His guest, Jennifer Rubin, I think said that the actual final date for changing the line-up for the election is Sept. 21, not Aug. 21. She thinks after the funding dries up, Akin might wake up and realize he can’t win.
Yes, Let us obey are Liberal masters and dump Akin. Some of you don’t have a testicle between you. God help us!
