Actually, it DOES make perfect sense.
To paraphrase the Myth Rom-gay supporters on here, Akin is better than McCaskill, warts and all. Better to have a guy who makes some dumb comment about "legitimate rape" but who will nevertheless vote down-the-line conservatively put into office, than to put one of Obama's most lackyish lackies back into the seat.
I unfortunately will vote for this dipstick, as he is better than Claire. I sincerely hope we can get a 3rd party person running though. I don’t think akin will win. The prevailing view I have heard here is that he think if you get pregnant as a result of rape it wasn’t really rape, because of the magic uterus.
Besides, he has Palin and West wanting him out and Claire wanting him to stay. I gotta stand with Palin and West. Akin really should have gone a long time ago.
