Akin is an idiot. Just because the MSM say he’s a jerk doesn’t mean he isn’t. Any other Republican can beat McCaskill but Akin cannot.

Good post.IMHO,this race has national implications.Besides give Palin any other candidate and she will pull them across the finish line in just a few weeks.

he claimed to have read something a long time ago that lead to his elaboration.

The fact that what he read was true, based on a history of evidence, doesn't matter to you ?

COME ON. YOU KNOW women have claimed RAPE after having consensual sex, Or after they became pregnant. This whole issue is about the use of the word LEGITIMATE, because it implies women would LIE. THAT, is the unspoken reality of this. THAT WORD is what is being objected to. Not whether women who are raped can or cannot get pregnant, but on WHETHER WOMEN LIE to COVER UP the reason for a PREGNANCY, and whether they would CRY RAPE so that they can get the government(meaning YOU and ME) to pay for their ABORTION.

Few here know what it takes to keep a national audience of millions.Its not easy. Only a handful of people can do it year after year.

Well, you’ll note from the site handle that I didn’t come into this as a republican. I’m currently without party affiliation. And the chances of my joining the gop remain nil.

But the MSM has the power to do that so you have to very careful, almost impossibly careful. Akin wasn't and he got burned.

A candidate unaware of how careful he needs to be he is too stupid to be a Senator. Unfortunately, we're stuck with him and have to make the most of it.

We’re on a roll with Romney/Ryan ...about to take the presidency, the senate, the house and the supremes. These stakes don’t get higher and we got a good shot at running the table.
We can win the senate without Akin but the repubs cannot allow another like him.

Make a friggin example out of him so any repub who even THINKS of breaking goofy and fng this up knows whats in store. Cut every dime and delete him from everyone’s phones.
If he does happen to win no office, no chairmanships. He can sit in a bathroom stall all day and prattle on about how he’s God’s chosen candidate.

We don’t need a “Mr Know-it-all” if he can’t back-up what he is saying is fact, Akin should have got the reporters contact number and said he would get back to them when he had an answer.

Uh, no there wouldn't.

Uh, why? Because having knowledge and putting it to use are not the same thing ?

Because no matter how smart you are, if you are whacked out on Exstacy, you will screw anything that stays motionless long enough ?

That is why McCaskill and the DNC pumped so much money and support into his campaign. He could have never won without the help he received from the DNC.

The problem with Hannity,Laura Ingraham, Beck and others is that they all get measured against Rush. Few measure up.Try and put yourself in Hannity's shoes. The guy never stops working.He goes from radio to tv back home to collapse and go to sleep and then repeats it over and over.

Truth is you don't keep an audience second only to Rush Limbaugh simply by following him. Does Hannity have some aspects of his show that others would do differently? Of course.He uses to many of the same people over and over and may not cover the issues you want him to cover.

Bottom line he is the number two broadcaster in the country possibly the world and he gets my respect.

I’m with you on the GOP...they are blowing it big time this time.
What really irked me about this Akin business, is Romney calling for him to step down! Romney? Here’s what I think about that... since you can’t pull ahead of obama in the polls and it looks like you are following the way of Dole, and may very well lose to the worst president we have ever had including Carter..I think you should step down Romney!! We need a nominee that can win. Can you imagine obama asking Newt Gingrich for his tax returns? Newt would chew him up and spit him out. It really is ridiculous that we are about to get stuck with this loser when any of the other GOP primary contenders (well most of them) could beat obama hands down.

Women don't like being called liars, especially when they can avoid responsibility for their 'act' by claiming rape.

How often do you think that happens?

You don't have to follow Sarah. You can follow the other person in our party that covers almost every election every two years and gets dozens of our Souse and Senate members elected and reelected. Why don't you follow him?

Oh yeah.... He/she doesn't exist now does he....

How many times have women had consensual sex and once pregnant, claimed rape to hide the truth from parents and friends ?

I don't know....do you?
