The only people hurting republican chances are republicans themselves.

This is what the democrats did to the republicans in August of 2012.

The DEMOCRATS PICKED ATKIN !
It was an OPEN PRIMARY with a crowded field and the Dems voted and Claire spent millions on Akin .
Ads that he accepted knowing it was HER !

So he is no great republican.

He is a greedy and power hungry fool that does not have the class or decency to quit.

He is responsible for this mess and only he can shut it down.
But he is a cry baby and delusional
