She is outspending him 10 to 1??? and the polls are still neck and neck.

She is outspending him 10 to 1??? and the polls are still neck and neck.

Imagine if he had a little party support.

[cotton1706]

Gingrich and Palin: working to get real conservatives elected to the senate.

Priebus and Cornyn: would be very happy with moderates or democrats getting elected.

[BallandPowder]

Pleased to see Newt step up for a valuable conservative voice.

[donozark]

Wonder what time the "Todd Akin Watch Party" starts tomorrow? You know, folks who STILL think Akin is going to pull the pin by the deadline tomorrow. Amazing after all this time, some still think he is going to petition to court to remove his name from the ballot. Ain't gonna happen. As Bob Dole would say,"You know it, I know it, and the American people know it."

Unfortunately, a few folks on FR seem to think he will petition the court. Sorry to disappoint them.

The Presidential ballots were certified on Sept. 17. The military overseas ballots shipped on the 22nd of Sept. And tomorrow the general absentee ballots are shipped.

So for all those in Rio Linda, or of similar mind-set...Todd Akin is the Republican Senatorial candidate from Missouri! Either vote for, and $upport him, or give Mother McCaskill SIX more years to implement the agenda of the Imposter from Mombasa...

[newzjunkey]

So "neck and neck" in your world is McCaskill +6 in the most recent MO poll from Rasmussen?

Crazy Akin's supporters love PPP, the Dem pollster, for having McCaskill up only 1... in a poll nearly a month old that helped convince Akin to stay in just as it was designed to.

[TADSLOS]

Gingrich - Doing the job the tepid GOP-E simply won’t do.

[albie]

I have a new found respect for Akin simply because he DID decide to stay. That took an immense amount of courage, not ego. He was ridiculed, shunned and ignored by a vast majority of pubs and he’s still in there. This is the kind of guy we need in the Senate! I admit, I was one of the ones who screamed for him to leave too.

[centurion316]

Good for Newt, this is what he should be doing and other conservatives should be doing it as well. Akin deserves the conservative vote and I think that he will get it.

However, that doesn't mean that he can win this race, he can't. He will not get critical moderate, independent, and women voters, and McCaskill's $500K a week will keep the issue alive through election day. Since he has refused to leave, conservatives should support him for the good of the party and for longer term objectives. But, this race is over and will be remembered for its resemblance to other monumental foul ups like Sharon Angle and Christine O'Connor.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Whatever else you say about Akin, he has the right GOPe enemies, and the right conservative friends.

He can win this thing. Karl Rove and the GOPe are willing to cede the seat to a Democrat rather than not get their way.

[Tennessee Nana]

Newt youre worth 100 of Willard and hs cohorts...

[Pat4ever]

“Karl Rove and the GOP are willing to cede the seat to a Democrat rather than not get their way.” YUP that’s the problem. Un-freakin’-believable!

[spincaster]

Can you imagine if Newt were up against Obumer, at this point he would be pounding him relentlessly .He is a good man and he will serve Akin well.
