The Todd Akin effect
That’s what I was thinking.
Yep.
That may be a factor. Well... most of knew the trouble Akin would cause by remaining a festering sore rather than leaving.
Yep. Massive female cratering, after saturation media coverage. And we haven't even hear about how racists Mormons were and how Mitt "did not stand up to it".
Possibly. Unlikely. Probably statistical noise. Don't panic.
Nobody wants to say that but it’s 100% true. Now that i agreed with you i’m sure his defenders will come out of the woodwork to explain yet again how great a man he is and how we all need to stand strong with him because after all,sticking our heads in the stand is always a winning proposition.
Well, some of his supporters now are happy that the election has turned into discussions about rape and abortion. If with that Romney and the rest of Republican candidates are forced to show their ‘true color’ as liberals that’s good. If Romney lost, even better. That’ll teach them RINO a lesson for abandoning Akin. What? More abortions will happen if Obama is reelected? Darn RINO!
Akin + Romney’s little “joke” about his birth certificate which brought on 3 days now of intense media discussion and condemnation (and NO talk of economy)
