McCaskill, Akin tout extremes in Mo. Senate race Wed, Aug 8, 2012
"I believed Todd Akin had a chance of winning, and I wanted to make sure voters understood how conservative he was," McCaskill told the AP.
McCaskill's ad highlighted Akin's conservative viewpoints. It called him a "crusader against bigger government," asserting that he wants to eliminate some federal agencies and privatize Social Security and noting that he promotes a "pro-family agenda." It ended with the claim that Akin "is just too conservative."
Some Republican voters, including tea party activists, told the AP that the ad helped persuade them to support Akin.
Not word one about the ads influencing Democrats into crossing over and voting for him.
Her words indicate she wanted, by saying he was "too" conservative, to damage him, not help him.
I'll look at anything you've got to support your suppositions. Just "saying it" doesn't prove it.
You can have your exit polls.I don’t know what they are worth at this point,they are ancient history.The only one I am concerned with is the current polling.Current polling shows that Mccaskill is still vulnerable with most any candidate we care to run except Akin.Here is just one of many.
