I could just be drinking the conspiracy Kool-ade. Then again, the stakes are very, very high, and not just for Missouri. If this guy's pigheaded arrogance costs us races in other states-or the Presidency-at this critical (dare I say final) hour, well, I pray to God that we don't have to go there.
“My fellow Missourians. I have decided to remain in the race and turn it into a total crapshoot. Yes, I know it greatly increases the chances of the Democrats retaining their Senate seat here plus it even endangers the chances of Romney to win Missouri but, hey, I’m not a quitter. On top of that I have certain responsibilities to fulfill. In particular I have a financial responsibility to my opponent who invested 2 million dollars to get me on the ticket.”
This could very well cost us ALL the marbles....
You are drinking the Kood-ade and Akin has been a MO Congresscritter for quite some time now.
