I wonder if it would have helped Akin if EVERY SINGLE NEWS REPORT, AD, OR DISCUSSION could have mentioned the phrase “legitimate rape” THREE times each, instead of only once?
As far and all news media was concerned, the word “Akin” = Legitimate Rape, and will always and forever be so.
Akin was legitimately raped by a biased media.
You may be on to something.
Unfortunately, Akin shot himself in the foot and became McCackle’s choice as an opponent. It was a perfect storm.
Yes, indeed.
And, who led the charge? Karl Rove and his elitist buddies. They kicked a good man when he was down. Cowards!
Of all the losses last night, Akin's loss was among the most tragic and unnecessary.
Look at it any way you wish but he said it. There’s no way to make that statement sound good. There’s no way to cover it.
Candidates matter. we can have the better plans.the better idea’s the better everything. None of it matters unless we have candidates who are A:acceptable to people and B: able to keep their foot out of their own mouth’s.
Look no further than the top of the ticket. The field was atrocious. Romney was the least offensive of an offensive lot.
