Weve got to take back the Senate and Missouri is a must-win state, Palin told Fox News Greta Van Susteren. The way we do that is to have someone like Sarah Steelman be able to run even if its as a third-party candidate to be able to run and help us take this back. Palin endorsed Steelman in the primary, which was regarded as showdown for the privilege of challenging the deeply-unpopular Sen. Claire McCaskill, D-Mo. I saw Sarah Palin on Greta's show Tuesday night. Palin was VERY ticked off about Akin remaining in the race. Her words were terse, and I don't think she smiled at all during the entire interview. Very unusual for a typical Sarah Palin-Greta Van Sustern interview...

I saw her, as well, and your assessment is right on!
If he doesn’t go to court and drop out, she is all in for a third party run with Steelman.
Must see tee vee!

But, having endorsed Steelman, she has no influence now Akin.

The big mistake he made was his choice of words.
If he would have used valid instead of legitimate, and prefaced it with invalid examples being the Tawana Brawley and Duke Lacrosse team false claims of rape he would have still been pilloried by the press, but it would have been easier to combat.
The GOP should run Steelman (the TPX choice) if they are sucessful in getting Akin out of the race.
But of course they won't, she's too "tea party" for them.
One of the things I notice that many are trying to do is push the "fact" that women don't conceive from forcible rape therefore every "raped" woman that conceives was actually willing to have the sex.
