This issue has become bigger than Akin, and thanks to the MSM, it will remain that way until the election. The Dems have already attached the albatross that is Akin to the neck of the Romney/Ryan campaign.

All of the networks are reading from the same Dem talking points. After Sandra Fluke was made a mockery of, this has now put 'women's reproductive rights' back on the front burner, elbowing out the real issues that R&R were gaining traction with - economy, unemployment, national debt, Medicare, rising gas prices, etc.

Right or wrong .. apology or not ... Akin needs to stop being a distraction, and he does that by withdrawing from the race.

Sandra Fluke will be a featured speaker at the dem convention. Probably be put in as a suprise VP choice.
