“...voters not affiliated with either major party still favor Romney by 20 points. But Republican support in Missouri for the partys likely nominee has fallen from 94% in late July to 85% now, Rasmussen continues. “
Akin caused a drop in Republican support for Romney?
The only possible connection I can see is that Republicans were angry at Romney’s overly harsh response to Akin’s retracted remarks.
But my best guess is that there is no connection.
Obamas Democratic support in the state remains largely unchanged at 96%, and voters not affiliated with either major party still favor Romney by 20 points. But Republican support in Missouri for the partys likely nominee has fallen from 94% in late July to 85% now, Rasmussen continues
My bet is Akin loses by 13 points to McCaskill. Akin will join the Sharon Angle-O’Connell-Hoffman-Miller club. This guy has ego bigger than Obama, and brain smaller than Biden.
