True, but if they get up on stage with a 3rd party candidate, then that creates even further separation from Akin, making it clear that he’s not the candidate and just some random kook that doesn’t know to stop dancing after the music got turned off.
They don’t need to get on stage with any Mo. candidates.. They are there to win the votes of Mo. citizens. If I were running their campaign I would have them in Mo. regardless and just ignore the whole brouhaha.
