Let’s not let common sense FACTS get in the way of crucifying an innocent man, who misspoke.
See comment # 6... Politics is played out in the flash of a thought, the mind either accepting, rejecting or cringing in response ... Akin shows he lacks the understanding of that concept, he committed a political slash and burn on his own campaign, he made the minds of even conservatives cringe, and hurtfully so... exactly why McCaskill was paying some of her own campaign funds to get this guy elected in the primary. When something you say or do overrides any good you may be worth, its time to fade back into the woodwork and let someone else take up the fight.
Memo to republicans: when your 10 points ahead keep your mouth shut. Before firing rhetorical weapons make sure they are not pointed at self.
You just cant be this stupid on the national stage as a republican. I dont care what your heart says.
Rhetorical self immolation to be sure....
