If Todd Akin is “done,” it’s only because our fellow Repubs tossed him under the bus within seconds of his screw up.
You almost NEVER see the Left do that to their wounded.
Yes, yesterday’s story of the democrat congressman who was arrested giving a 17 year old a BJ at a rest stop is already forgotten yet here we are after three or four days, still shrieking and rending our garments over Akin’s comments.
“You almost NEVER see the Left do that to their wounded.”
They did it to Spitzer, they did it to Weiner, they did it to Torricelli.
The left is actually much more cutthroat about when they ditch someone. There is no talk of “but he is a good guy”, or “what about his ACLU ratings.”
That’s because the left actually wants to win. Republicans think they are in a debate club and the left knows this is a street fight. Anybody who’s a liability is kicked off the curb.
Obviously you have no clue what you are talking about. Missouri is a 'swing' state. Do you understand what that means. Apparently NOT, so I will explain. The state has about equal parts liberals, conservative/republicans and independents. NOW after this episode of foot in mouth who do you think those independents are going to vote for?
Rightly or wrongly this is reality.... Have you ever seen those independents that Frank Luntz rounds up to monitor their 'heart' rates.... Independents recoil at ridicule and they race as fast as they can to the perceive safe politician.... ARE YOU GETTING the reality of Missouri elections?
What self-righteous Akin did was spook those shaking in the wind independents.... ARE you getting it yet.... without the independents there are NOT enough conservative/republicans in this state to defeat Claire.... H E L L O!!!! Pray for a miracle and stop blaming everybody but AKIN he and he alone made this mess. GOT IT YET!!!!
what Akin said was factually wrong AND way beyond stupid. You don’t give ammo to your enemies. Moreover, McCaskill and her PAC supported him in the primary by running ads against his other opponents. He should have been content in the house where he could hide and collect his largesse
You’re just not paying attention. Gauthier dropped today, Wiener didn’t fare so well, Spitzer destroyed his career, Torricelli is gone, Garcia made one anti-Israel comment too many etc. The democrats are ruthless about dumping political liabilities.
YOU ARE CORRECT..
SAD ISN’T IT?
“You almost NEVER see the Left do that to their wounded.”
It almost makes you wonder who the real hypocrites are.
