I have a new found respect for Akin simply because he DID decide to stay. That took an immense amount of courage, not ego. He was ridiculed, shunned and ignored by a vast majority of pubs and he’s still in there. This is the kind of guy we need in the Senate! I admit, I was one of the ones who screamed for him to leave too.
In his debate with her last Friday he demolished her. He came off as knowledgeable and reasoned and she as shrill and whiny. I have to believe it was worth a few points in the polls.
“I have a new found respect for Akin simply because he DID decide to stay.”I agree with you all the way.
I have thought this from the begining. He has got a spine and guts, which few have.
