She came in about 7 points back behind a guy named Brunner. That makes it hard to jump to her. The establishment hates Brunner just as bad as they hate Adkin. The cowering is beyond belief. Not a spine or “gravitas” to be out there saying, so what, “At least Adkin isn’t a baby killer funding Planned Parenthood”. It’s no wonder the Dems usually control government.

Obama’s campaign also believes its intense swing-state focus on abortion and contraception issues has been given new and possibly crippling heft with Rep. Todd Akin’s comments about “legitimate rape” as he seeks to unseat Democratic Sen. Claire McCaskill in Missouri.

The Romney campaign swiftly distanced itself from Akin, but Romney’s running mate, Wisconsin Rep. Paul Ryan, cosponsored legislation with Akin that unsuccessfully sought to redefine “forcible rape” in the federal code.

Tough commercials on this are in the works as are radio ads in swing states battering Romney and Ryan for domestic spending cuts in Ryan’s GOP budget blueprints.
