It is wrong for the GOP establishment to try and force out one of the most conservative republicans in Congress. We have fought long and hard to get folks like Akin elected. YOU mean to tell me that MO should go along with the moderate/liberals in the GOP and stab a strong conservative? insanity! Akin apologized. He has a 100% rating by the American Conservative Union. IF Akin wins ..it won't be thanks to Romney.

Akin is not elected yet, he was just nominated and he shot himself in the foot severely. “fighting long and hard” gets dealt a blow when candidates do that. Of course Akin apologized, as he should, but its up to voters to forgive and that doesnt change the fact that he changed an easy win into a likely loss. Your ire is therefore misdirected. May as well put your money where your mouth is, because mcCaskill will outspend Akin.
