It was a mis-speak. This dead horse has been beaten already. The polls indicate the people of Missouri are still behind Akin, and do you really think voters in MO are going to vote for Romney and then McCaskill?
“It’s someone else’s fault” is simplistic, don’t you think? All party candidates are supposed to enjoy financial support from the party. There’s no reason for the GOP-e to withhold funds. The GOP-e jumped on the SRM bandwagon with the talking-points, but they could have still provided financial support.
If Akins loses, and it’s close, a case can be made it was from lack of advertising. We’ll see.
What does the behavior of the "GOP-e" one way or the other have to do with Akin's campaign not getting their bill paid on time? How is that anyone else's responsibility? If the party orgs were still running ads they would still not be in charge of sending the Akin campaign's checks in for their own ads.
