I was sympathetic to Aikin until I read this article.

He’s the only guy that McCaskel can beat.

Both the parties are ganging up on him for the miscue. This is a negative bump. We've seen dozens of bumps just in the last year, bumps up and down, for all the major candidates. Assuming Akin stays in the race, and I hope he does, the Pro-Akin and Anti-McCaskill people of Missouri will align once more to gain the Senate seat. I have no doubt. If the GOP is willing to beg us to support a man of Romney's low conservative value, it should have no problem pulling for Akin. It is insulting to the conservative base not to do so.
