Rep. Todd Akin (R-Mo.) raised over $100,000 in a fundraising push started this week after members of the GOP establishment withdrew funds from the Missouri Senate race.

He announced the accomplishment in a tweet.

"Thousands of people stepped up and helped us raise over $100,000! The message is clear ... voters should pick candidates, not party bosses," he tweeted

$100,000 is peanuts and I bet you that $99,999 came from MCcaskill supporters.

Todd, look you messed up and messed up big. Just leave after you have legitimately raped the conservative movement.

I hope he raises another 100,00 and gives you, personally, the finger afterwards.

Are you bashing him because he is Christian?

Akin is already giving me the finger, with his help in re-electing Claire McCaskill.

One thing that we can be certain of is a “legitimate” idiot will certainly lose in November.

Todd Akin is the only person Senator Claire McCaskill could beat. She will continue to fund his campaign to keep him in the race.

Todd Akin is too stupid to realize he is being played for a chump. He will be soundly defeated and humiliated and drag down the conservative and pro-life movements. Thanks, idiot.

Only $4,900,000 left to go to just break even with the money that’s already been withdrawn.

Look at the bright side, every dollar they give to Akin is a dollar they aren’t giving to Obama.

"Keep your people sending in those donations Claire, then when it's too late for him to withdraw, cut him off!"

Well just another 4,900,000 and he will make up what the RNC will not waste on his campaign.

You know for sure McCaskill’s funding Akin’s campaign? I mean you have personal, privileged knowledge of this alleged fact? (I’m not saying you don’t; but, do you?) - What was it McCaskill did that got her in hot water? Now, this is what the focus needs to be, since folks wishing Akin would quit don’t seem to be getting their wish.

Why don't you ask Todd Akin, he is tweeting against party bosses and not Clair McCaskill.

granny mccaskill and the other little marxist morons are going to try to ride the akin mule as long as they can.

people need to stay focused and get engaged with what's really critical for our republic.

everyone who cares about America needs to answer this question every day --

What did I do today to get rid of obama and save American capitalism and our country ? did i make any calls, donate, talk to someone about voting for the right candidates and why?

come on folks, lets please stay focused and stay busy.

He still has plenty of time to pull it out, but he needs to make the election about Obamacare.
