The political WHORES in Washington want, above all else, TO WIN! Rinse Prepubescent will eat his words and help Akin all he quietly can. If necessary, he will publicly eat crow.
Republicans burned all the Akin bridges and now have to swim back across the huge moat they dug.
If Akin were a liberal, the Republican establishment would be saying that Akin may not be perfect but this election is too important to not support him. They would be saying that it’s more important to take control of the Senate than to let issues or principles get in the way of voting for the Republican nominee.
But he’s a conservative so they don’t mind throwing him under the bus and all but assuring that the Democrat keeps the seat. Hopefully conservative groups will give him enough money to win the seat.
