Are those independents sufficient in number to draw enough votes away from McCaskill and Akin to win the race for a third-party or write-in candidate by even a slim majority? It's still a "Fail!" ...

Akin screwed us all by staying in the race. He is not irreplaceable but every day that passes makes it more difficult. Somebody should have grown up a long time ago. He’s a jerk.
