He is making a political calculation like a RINO.
This is all about what works for HIM and not what works for the nation.
The Repub. Senatorial Committee already dumped support for him.
He is toast. It is a stupid mistake but life sucks.
Akin is as conservative as they come. He can get out if he wants, but if he decides to stay in all republicans should support him. Are you listening Karl RINO Rove and the GOP?
Or would you rather have the leftist Claire McCaskill win again.
“On Monday, amid a growing chorus of GOP leaders calling for Akin to halt his Senate campaign, the FRC Action PAC released a statement supporting his candidacy.
“This is another case of ‘gotcha politics’ against a conservative leader,” FRC Action PAC president Connie Mackey said. “Todd Akin has a long and distinguished record of defending women, children and families. He has fought against forcing taxpayers to subsidize abortion giant Planned Parenthood, which is the bedrock of Claire McCaskill’s base of support. When speaking about the issue of rape, let’s not forget the cover-up of statutory rape by Planned Parenthood, which to my knowledge has not been addressed by Senator McCaskill.
“Throughout his twelve years in Congress, Todd Akin has supported legislation that honors all human life. He has opposed the commodification of women in contrast to his opponent, Claire McCaskill, who has a long record of promoting the abortion industry while ignoring how abortion harms women.”

Exactly. It's all about making a point and if it helps the leftist Dem, then so be it.
Like what that Virgil Goode character is doing in Virginia.
