It’s the Fable of the Magic Uterus.
There are people right here on FR that still believe this and think Akin should stay in the race. They don't have any clue how ridiculous they sound or how politically tone deaf they are.
Akin may be a nice guy and a terrific conservative, but he can't win this seat any longer and that makes him a liability. This Senate seat is far more important than Akin's feelings or ego.
