What I find interesting is how many “conservative” FReepers have screamed for Akin’s head while either rushing to Scott Brown’s defense or ignored his call for the GOP to be more inclusive of the “good” pro abortionists.

A time for choosing is upon us.
Because Brown's babble, while annoying, probably helps him win his Senate race in deep blue Mass. Akin's ridiculous comments ensure he loses his race for the Senate in Missouri. See the difference there? Brown probably helps himself to win a seat and keep injun Warren out of the Senate. Akin all but guarantees that liberal Claire retains a Senate seat for the Democrats for 6 more years. Is it really this difficult for you to understand? Really?
No Senator is perfect. No politician is perfect. The first attribute necessary is the ability to win. That is the minimum job requirement for a politician. If you can't win, no matter how nice you are, you are politically worthless. Akin is now political worthless. Brown, while flawed on many levels, is still politically useful.
