The problem being Aikin is spending a lot of his time saying "What I really meant was...". This cuts into the time where he can get his message on the economy and jobs and defense out there. To date his quotes have provided McCaskill with a couple of commercials. This quote should be good for another one. God knows how many more he'll give her.
Then please ask Mitt Romney to step down because of all the time he's spending explaining why he's not releasing his taxes. Well over half of all the mentions of Romney I hear about on the MSM for the last month seem to be about his tax returns.
Akin was talking about a highly relevant issue to voters, abortion. By explaining his comments, he can easily let people know what his views are on abortion, which should play well in his state. Romney's tax return issue is a total vacuum sucking oxygen out of his campaign and offering absolutely no benefit in return.
‘Aikin is spending a lot of his time saying “What I really meant was...”. ‘
Sorry to hear that, the RNC should send a ‘slickness expert’ his way then.
