They’re about three days too late for an October Surprise.
The Bush DUI suppressed his vote because the evangelicals among his supporters were disappointed in him.
Akin could have been arrested a dozen times in the '80's for anti-abortion activism and it won't disappoint a single supporter. It actually lends to his conservative credentials -- like a liberal being charged with cheating on his wife.
Their October surprise?
Geez! I thought this was an article released by the Akin campaign! Oh well, I'm sending him another donation anyways for sacrificing an arrest or so for LIFE.
