I put just as much blame on very stupid voters in Missouri - who won’t forgive a poor selection of words when something as important as your representation in Washington DC is as stake. Akin spoke very foolishly - but still represented a FAR better choice for Senate.

I agree that Akin would have been better than McCaskill, however his statement was a window into his ignorance, and I'm afraid, his unelectability.

Mister Akin owes the Great State of Missouri and all of us GOPers an apology for his selfishness.

I agree with you that I wish the Missouri voters would have done a better contrasting and comparison of competing stupidities between the two candidates, but I was pretty certain that they would not .
