It doesn’t matter is what he said is true or not...the MSM is going to use it as a club and that’s all there is to it.

They will beat him with it until election day...and if he wins (unlikely) he will be known as the Senator from Legitimate Rape...or some such.

The media is very powerful, still...and they will not let this go. Too many voters are stupid enough to buy their take on this.

Wish it weren’t so.

And just imagine how much pressure the MSM is going to put on Romney to reveal his tax returns. And folks like Bill Kristol and George Will will add to the pressure. When the MSM can force the Reps to dance to their tune by making a mountain out of molehill in the case of Akin, do you think that motivates them to do even more? When you give a bully your lunch money on Monday, do you believe that he will not come back each day thereafter to get more?

The GOP caved and the pressure will only become greater on other Rep candidates who might commit a verbal gaffe. They will be walking on eggshells from now to November. Self-censorship is the worst censorship of all.

The MSM is deep in the tank for Obama. If they are as powerful as you say they are, Obama will be reelected. Why bother going to the polls?
