NAW. By November, this will be a distant memory.
As hard as it is to see now during the present hysteria, MO is a solid red state now and will come through for Romney by +10 and perhaps +2 for Akin.
Real conservatives will now stop the carping and get behind Akin, or else we are guaranteed to have six more years of McCaskill.
True conservatives will hold their noses and vote for him. However, for most of those voters it will be one of the biggest secrets of their lives. That is not a way to win though. It is a way to lose.
He can say nothing between now and the election to persuade any of those 48% who told Rasmussen they are voting for the dumb broad to change their mind and work for Akin.

I think you’re right. After 2 years of the Commie in Chief I was so desparate for a win I even contributed money to Scott Brown in 2010. If I did that, I can certainly contribute to Akin. Akin made a real screw-up, but it pales in comparison to letting ObamaClair back in without a fight.
True, he will have made many more gaffes by then.
