When a warrior has fought hard on your side for a decade you don't abandon him over one error

But the warrior abandoned YOU with his backpeddling of his own words. You are literally posting from under the bus where you've been thrown by that same "warrior".

Exactly right. The "warrior" threw the entire GOP (both conservatives and the more establishment types) under the bus in a desperate attempt to salvage 'his' seat in the Senate. Disgusting.

What are you talking about? No one supporting Akin agrees he should have used the term "legitimate rape" and most of his supporters don't agree with the pregnancy/rape theory. He made a mistake bringing that up as if it was established science. This isn't about excusing what Akin said, it's about giving him a chance to recover from an error.
