McCaskill picked the opponent from the nominees facing her whose voting record most closely represented the righ-wing conservative republicans, people like you and I. In her opinion, the further "right" the candidate, the greater the chances she has to overcome him. Given the environment in Missouri these days, she didn't really have a snowball's chance against any of them, so this became her hail-Mary attempt at picking what she feels is an "extreme" candidate. It just so happens that we on FR as well as the grass roots across America like extremely conservative candidates. I sincerely hope her plan backfires as I will enjoy watching the fireworks that ensue in the democrat camp.

If you are after results, Akin is a disaster. If you are concerned with feeling morally superior, and preening about you superiority over those who think that elections have something to do with selecting officials who pass laws and set public policy, then Akin is your guy.
