And everytime he's going to try to talk about issues, all he will asked about and be remembered for is being the "Rape Guy".
They don’t care. As long as Sean Vannity, Hush Bimbo, HomoCon Coulter, and the GOP elite tell them to be outraged, they are outraged. It’s all about Party Politics.
Threatened the future of this Country because of his selfish need for redemption and self glorification.
I was sympathetic to Aikin until I read this article.

He’s the only guy that McCaskel can beat.
Add to the list: Invented a new English language term: “legitimate rape”.
You know, I’m fine with the guy now. I know what he was trying to say, the word choice of “legimate rape” certainly is unfortunate, but its actual meaning is obvious. Certainly “forcible rape” would have been preferrable.
With regard to the female body having ways of shutting that whole thing down... stupid thing to say, but apparently there is some merit to it in some quarters, but it isn’t reliable scientific fact, so there’s no point in discussing it as if it was IMO.
I understand that he is a 100% pro lifer. I do disagree with that position, because I believe the rape, incest, life of mother exception should be aloowed and not condemned.
That decision is for those people on that unfortunate path to make, and no one else.
But I respect his right to believe as he does. I’d vote for him, he has a respectable conservative record. I wouldn’t throw him under the bus for his unfortunate choice of words. Now is the time to rally around America and elect conservatives, not eat our own as we always do. That characteristic is of failure.
Where Akin is on the issues is completely irrelevant. His continue presence in the race damages Republicans’ chances of re-capturing the Senate and are already allowing the democrats to avoid talking about Obama’s miserable record.
This selfish bastard is dominating the media now and allowing the democrats to focus the media’s attention away from the issues that will help Republicans win. The bottom line is that any one of the other available candidate are a guaranteed win for the Republicans. Akin is not. That is all that matters and he should be able to recognize that and do what is right for his party.
Steelman is just as conservative, with the added benefit of not being stupid. Akin is unelectable and his political career is over. He just doesn’t know it yet.
1) We just came off the Chick-fil-A triumph
2) Dems says stupid things all the time
3) Let’s stop running from the Media, and what people say/think
We can win this, and cut the heart out of Media attacks on Conservatives.
Divide and conquer
And everytime he's going to try to talk about issues, all he will asked about and be remembered for is being the "Rape Guy".
Let it go and stop falling for Lib distractions.
We need to focus on the economy!

Can’t vouch for his intellect because I don’t know the guy, but I do like his voting record. And so far he does not seem to be a quitter, like so many of the gutless spineless Republicans that are advising him to quit, turn tail, back down and run like so many them do. “Quit for the good of the party”- How about “Stand and fight just this once” and set a rare example for the Republican party.
Don’t try to confuse all the fair weather Freepers with the facts. They’ve already joined the lynch mob.
Akin is 100% in agreement with all we here on Free Republic are supposed to believe. He makes one rather unfortunate statement (using “legitimate” instead of “forcible”) and everyone wants to lynch him and put in a Susan Collins or Olympia Snowe clone to replace him.
He has at least another month to get out of the race if this silly issue is still an albatross around his neck. 90% of the people who are calling for his removal from the ticket had no clue he was even alive until the MSM caught this gotcha moment. I am quite surprised at the number of Freepers who are calling for his crucifixion. Well we have all had our gotcha moments.
Let him who has never made a stupid statement cast the first stone.
Seriously??? Akin’s a freakin’ idiot! Can’t the GOP do better than this?? For God’s sake, I’m just sayin’ ... why can’t the right find articulate people who understand the power of the media and know how to work it like REAGAN did in his era?
Thanks for the information.
No wonder the RINOs want Akin out! This man is about as True Conservative as you can be
If the Liberal PhonyCons do not want Akin to be Senator in Missouri....I will be glad to take him down here in Florida. The same PhonyCons trying to push out Akin are the same ones who claim that Amnesty-lovin’, America-hating, “My parents fled capitalism”, Marco “La Raza” Rubio, is a Conservative. They can have Rubio
Hopefully the “Senator Trade Deadline” has not passed
BTTT
