It's time for a nuclear bomb. Republicans should stage a write-in campaign for a popular Republican, such as Kit Bond, former governor and senator from Missouri. - Ann Coulter

That's a nuclear bomb, alright, particularly if Bond doesn't want to play. When he announced his retirement from the Senate, Bond explained, "In 1972, I became Missouri's youngest governor. Good friends, I have no aspiration of becoming Missouri's oldest senator." He completed four terms in the Senate. So, I think somebody should ask Bond if he wants to get involved in this kind of thing at this time of his life.

Write-in candidacies and last minute substitutions are no sure thing. It might be more productive to get behind the guy who won the nomination and who is willing to run. But, I have no objection to trying a change if folks down there think it best.

I don't live in Missouri and so it's really none of my business what the GOP does in that state. If I did live in Missouri, I would vote for Akin before I would vote for McCaskill.

Thanks for the ping.
