We wouldn't need a mulligan if we started growing a backbone and not meekly accept these manufacture crises and double standards. David Vitter didn't resign. It is time to tough things out and put them in perspective. Since when does one verbal gaffe become a cause to withdraw from a race?
Since the former media morphed into a propaganda mouthpiece for liberal candidates. Large numbers of Americans still get their "news" from the alphabet-soup networks, CNN, PBS and MSNBC. GOPers can and often do fight back, but they have massive media filters through which they have to pound their message. Much as it's wrong, it's still the dynamic under which GOP candidates have to operate. Dems can say off-the-cuff crap all day long, but the expectation is that's par for them. The bar for GOPers is simply higher.
You know, I agree Akin ain’t leaving the race. I think people already know that. Akin should have thought of the money problem before opening his pie hole.
The point is for Akin to just run, don’t call attention to his idiotic claim, and move on. His wife isn’t running so she needs to tend to whatever it is she does daily and stay out of it.
Thank you.
When it is about a subject like rape. Why is that so difficult to understand that goes to a whole other level?
