The democrats would have defended Akin

And they did - big time. He was their choice to be the candidate - spending millions to assist him in winning the nomination, and McCaskill and company stood behind him to encourage him to stay in the race.

Sure, the democrats might have wanted Akin to stay in the race, and might even have "supported" him with money, but, only to attempt to highlight what they perceived as a big negative, but, it might be backfiring on them, since the polls indicate Akin taking the lead.

But, you conveniently skipped by my comments, which are about how the democrats would spin around their bad candidates and would still attempt to get them elected. To them, winning at any cost is what matters the most, and "supporting" Akin is proof of that.
