Isn't Akin the person that Mrs Palin didn't pick?

Can you imagine what the media and the GOP-E would have done if Aiken HAD been Palin’s pick? She would be the main line in the story. They would have joined together and placed a gasoline-filled tire around Palin’s neck and set it ablaze. Figuratively, of course.

Yep. Basically the Tea Party vote split between Brunner (FreedomWks) and Steelman (TP Express/Palin), allowing the Huckabee-backed weirdo to sneak in with 36%.
