“If he is a moron, we need more morons in Congress. I hope he stays in the race as a matter of principle. He has the moral courage to buck the Establishment and be his own man. These are the kinds of people we need to lead this country.”
Exactly right. Akin needs our support. This follow the crowd mentality is not good.
I find it hard to believe that you listened to his entire Hannity interview. Despite his objections, he made it clear, it's all about him. He wouldn't consider the possibility that he may be such a lightning rod, that he may, in fact, hurt his cause. He was convinced his political stance is so unique, no one could possibly replace him. He thinks the Republican Party is making a mountain out of a molehill, when the truth is, the McCaskill campaign hasn't even begun to use all the material they have on this guy.
He is a typical politcian who puts themselves above any voters or cause.
