The fact that many here claim to be Christians but are more interested in monetary policy than protecting life and maintaining traditional family values tells me that the "C" stands for Christian.
When Americans are more concerned for the wallets than the relationship of America to the creator, then we will follow the path of all nations who abandoned God for Mammon.
For too many this is ONLY about issues like Obamacare and taxes and saving their material investments. They are not too concerned about saving their souls or whether America is under God's grace.
America, America God shed His Grace on Thee.
Why should he?
Pure and simple, Akin was supported throughout the primary by Claire McCaskill, she was constantly running ads pimping Akin. There were a lot of Democrat cross over voting. Obamacare is a big deal for me, bBECAUSE of the abortion funding in it. The main 3 republican candidates had double digit leads over Claire, but Akin’s margin was the smallest. Since his comments, he has lost over 20 points, and Claire is up by 10 points. I refuse to stand behind a guy who is obiviously not able to articulate a simple thing such as “I don’t support abortion under any circumstances.”
Bottom line for me is this, Akin is toast, at least here ihn my area of Missouri (very rural, google Edina and Hurdland if you want to know). I would rather have a candidate that has a chance of taking down Claire than go down in flames defending a moron who is losing a can’t lose race.
