Since the remarks of sunday night did nothing but hurt the pro-life movement the other republicans (Conservative, Tea Party, Right-wingers, RINOs, GOPe) all ran away... they did not want that blood on their hands. I don't blame them.
With some people it’s not even worth bothering at this point. They have so convinced themselves of their persecution complex that they really believe Akin is being singled out because he’s pro-life.
They are completely tone deaf when it comes to politics and have no idea that Akin’s statements made him a non-creditable candidate that is unelectable. They think “it’s a minor mistake” and are convinced that people are only jumping on him because they want to punish the “pro-life candidate”.
Unfortunately, I think Akin himself is one of those people, and the fact that his campaign manager is his son means that he has nobody near him who will tell him what’s really going on.
