Sarah Palin should retract her early statement for Akin to drop out as well. Sarah jumped the gun on this one. She needs to apologize and start backing Todd. Funding would also help.
Agreed! In fact Sarah hasn’t been doing much of anything recently.
Meanwhile a Tea Party near Pittsburgh the other day had over 500 attendees. Some estimates put it at 800 and that in a heavily democrat/union area.
“Sarah Palin should retract her early statement for Akin to drop out as well.”
I agree. It’s rare that Sarah makes a political mistake, but I think she did here.
“Funding would also help.”
I whacked my plastic for Akin on Sunday. Todd Akin, aside from his unfortunate utterance about rape, which by the way, USED TO BE TAUGHT IN SOME NURSING SCHOOLS, is a good man and iron clad pro-life. I’m really pleased to see Newt step up and stand shoulder-to-shoulder with him.

As good as she is on the issues, Palin makes some bad political support choices
Of course, she supported Hanoi John McCain in 2010..when we had a good chance to unseat him in the primary
She supported another Pro-Amnesty Liberal Arizonan, Jeff Flake, for GOP Senate run for Jon Kyl’s seat ....Flake is so bad on Border/National Security he worked w Democrat Luis Gonzalez (one of the most Hispano Racist House members) to pass an Illegal Alien Amnesty bill
And, in Missouri, she supported Sarah Steelman, who actually had most of the GOPe insider support...more than both Brunner and Akin had COMBINED. The only GOP Insider support she did not have was the Chamber of Commerce (which supported Brunner)
She already backs a Todd, her husband. She got this right.
Akin deserves no apology. He's an arrogant nutcase obsessed with becoming senator without regard to cause or country.
Should Akin fail and the senate is lost, will his fanatical Freepers admit they were wrong? Nope. It'll be blamed on the "GOPe" or some Rovian conspiracy because Akin's so clearly blameless... just like Obama.
I agree. She also supported Carly Fiorina over Chuck Devore, and she will not shut up about what a great leader John McCain is. Her endorsements have no credibility with me anymore, if she keeps screwing up she is going to lose her ability to help the good guys as much as she has in the past.
