And Sarah Palin suggested that Obama might want to replace Baffling Joe Biden with someone else (Shrillary?). So now Obama won’t do that because it was her idea. Everyone here thought that was brilliant.

So now many here are saying, if the Dems want Akin on the ticket (O’Really?) we should replace Akin—the conservative candidate who won but recently made a verbal miscue.

What is this? George Costanza “Opposite” strategerizing? “Jerry, what I’ve been doing is the exact opposite of what I think I should be doing and it’s been working out great for me! Following that skewed logic, we should all plan on voting for the Kenyan ...

This is a non-issue. The only reason it’s being posted ad infinitum here is because our GOP-e `Chicken Littles’ are swooning/having heart palpitations over non-stop MSM coverage of the types of things Zero and Joe say all the time ... that’s too bad, to go through life with balls like BBs.

Oh, yeah: No Romney. No way, no how. Why? Because this is a conservative site. And now you’re thinking, “OK, he SAYS `No Romney’, but what he MEANS ... “.

Akin is a conservative. Support him, or keep your pie-hole shut.

Just because someone is conservative doesn’t make them a good candidate. His appearance on radio and tv has shown him to be a terrible candidate that is stupid and will cost us Mo and will have additional national implications.
If you want to support stupidity and lose Missouri for “purity” do it.
Neologisms like Bush would make are verbal miscues.
Making TOTALLY INCORRECT obscene statements is not a miscue. Shove that in your ignorant pie hole.

Just suppose the dems are pulling a brillant fast one-they know the repubs quite well so here they come supporting TA. Think about it. What a clever way to get what they do not want. No offense, but this is getting out of hand with people. He has time to recover if we pull together if he will not get out. George Allen said stupid stuff and now he's back. Why do we eat our own. The guy if he won, would not vote pro abortion legislation at all. If he leaves, next option though he may not leave and third party will split the voters, I do believe. The party should not made this into the no 1 issue. Romney’s running from him since TA is tied to Ryan. People are so closed minded. I think the dems are playing us on TA. They hate people like him to be anywhere close to power. Another mess that could have been turned around. There's no grown ups in leadership.

IF the choice is Claire or Akin...I will vote for Akin. Great leaders have made gaffes including my hero, Reagan. Reagan said that trees cause more pollution than automobiles. Akin won every election by a pretty good except for one.
He received two ratings from the American Conservative Union..one at 96% and the other at 100%. He is more conservative than Mitt Romney.
I think of the media, including Fox News and how they rallied around Juan Williams and Imus.
