I think he has a point.

[Sooth2222]

He’s a loon. That’s why the ‘rats wanted him to run.

[JediJones]

It’s not ignorance. Dick Morris always says if an incumbent isn’t above 50%, the undecided rarely breaks for them. So he is simply following the Dick Morris rule that says he’s likely to pick up the undecided vote by the time election day rolls around.

This controversy and huge media focus obviously has him pushed down as far as he could possibly go. He’s got nowhere to go but up from here.

[jazusamo]

It was a profound statement on your part when you said the the guys with the nets will be coming...They’re needed now.

[nhwingut]

He is not leaving. God told him it was his duty to fight against those elitists in liberal media - i.e. Hannity, Levin, Rush, Malkin, Coulter, Walker, Rubio, Ryan...

[skeeter]

I don’t think Akin’s ass has been kicked enough. Lets kick it some more.

[colorado tanker]

It's just a flesh wound!

[Gay State Conservative]

I now understand why the Rats wanted,and still want,this clown on the ballot.They’ve seen his psychiatric report.

[Iron Munro]

[Truthsearcher]

The fact that his son is his campaign manager is all you need to know about his candidacy.

He was never ready for a prime time professional campaign.

[Christie at the beach]

I guess they want Palin’s pick some kinda bad. It’s

crazy to pile on, Imo. Let time help in case he does not step down so we have a workable chance.

[RIghtwardHo]

Why ANYONE puts ANY stock in ANY poll at this stage is utterly beyond me. Many here are just like the Rats, parsing and picking polls that they like, claiming oversampling, etc.

I guess nothing else to do.

[Kazan]

Of course, the answer is write-in campaign that will assure McCaskill wins by 25 points.

[Fresh Wind]

With all the crap that the Rats, the MSM, and the GOP-E have thrown at Akin, McCasket’s polling number only went up by 4 points, per Rasmussen.

That’s weakness.

[COBOL2Java]

"Todd is in this race to win; we will close this gap and win in November with the support of the grassroots in Missouri and across America."

Any day now...Akin's number will start climbing again!

[Harley]

Yea, great news if you live and die by the polls. I don’t trust polls and this guy shouldn’t either. Looks like Missouri is stuck with this damaged goods guy that probably will fire off some more major gaffes before Nov 6th. Too bad that he’s going down and taking a lot of good people with him.

[Christie at the beach]

I am beginning to think some do not like him since he is very strong pro-life. Some cannot balance pro life to a strong conservative policy builder. It's one way or the other for those people. People are bringing up slams like God is making him stay in. He's selfish (guess they are all pure, all knowing) and that he wants to stick it to the Gop-e-Well, don't we want tough people to stand up for us. His voting record outweighs his gaffes. Those folks on that site should not be too quick to condemn him. Alot of us defended Palin when the Couric got You interview harmed her. I may have to rethink some things after Palin’s interview on Fox because I don't understand why she is doing this. I am pretty much her number one fan in my family. This entire thing has been badly handled.

[CharlesWayneCT]

He’s shaping up to be another Christine O’Donnell.

And is his campaign manager related to him? The same last name suggests that.

[entropy12]

Akin is more delusional and more moronic than I thought just yesterday.

[Blogatron]

He’s been working for McKackle all along. Missouri, you were swindled.
