What a BS post. Sure a lot of Freepers wanted Akin to resign because it looked like he'd blown the race by saying something stupid. I was one of them (and for the record, Akin did say something stupid that was used by the media as a cudgel against him and other candidates). But to suggest that Freepers will be "depressed" over this news just shows how combative you are with fellow Freepers.
I thought Akin was a fool who had cost us a senate seat that was in the bag. If he pulls this out, I will be delighted. I will probably be sending him money.
For me, it was all about the seat. I don't know what your priorities are.
I don’t give a rats butt what you think about my post. I stand by every word. You guys were a bunch of immature brats during the whole thing. You are depressed that he is going to win. You want to pound your chest and say that “see he should have dropped out. We don’t want a patriotic conservative with a great voting record in the Senate”. You folks were completely wrong about the entire episode.
Ditto.
