Claire McCaskill never endorsed Akin. She is running for senate on the dem ticket. She has no love lost for Todd Akin and you can take that to the bank.
Listening to Claire’s ad sure made me want to vote Akin. What she said he stood for was exactly what I wanted to hear about a candidate.
What Chae is talking about is that McCaskill’s camp allegedly “preferred” to run against Akin, as he is the most Conservative of the candidates. It’s an example of be careful what you wish for, because Akin (and the other two) will beat her.
