Her PAC supported Akin with ads during the primary...so I am shocked shocked I tell you that she wants him to stay in.....
It was a geared election...to help Akin make it up through the primary and be the final Republican choice. The fact that Akin hasn’t figured this out....makes him either a knowing part of the scheme, or fairly naive (my bet is on the naive). But here’s the bottom line. Even if Akin had not made the comment....the best results would have been McCaskill likely winning 51-49 percent (based on several different sources)....so Akin didn’t have a great chance of winning, and this merely puts it back into the safe 60-40 percent range for McCaskill.
