It wasn’t his pro-life stance that sunk him. It was his idiotic remarks about rape victims not being able to become pregnant. That was just plain stupid.
If he had withdrawn, another candidate just as pro-life as he was would have run instead and most likely have beaten McCaskill.
The most winnable seat we had went down the tubes.

he didn't say that, he said rape victims have a much lower rate of pregnancy than the average female sex partner in a "friendly" relationship....he was right!
