Since Todd Akin (92+% ACU Rating) isnt moderate enough the GOPe cuts him loose to the wind. Why should conservatives stick around when the moderates have nothing but contempt for them? No, he was cut loose because he made politically toxic comments regarding rape which damaged not only himself but the entire Republican brand nationally. No one did that to him but himself. The fact those comments were politiclaly toxic has nothing with being a conservative, moderate, etc.

lol.
So find me a candidate that hasn’t said something stupid and backtracked.
You would probably still back Spectre, Crist etc no matter how liberal they were I bet.

No, he was cut loose because he made politically toxic comments regarding rape which damaged not only himself but the entire Republican brand nationally. Three weeks ago Romney came out against the national pro-life party platform, and returned to his pro-abortion position.
Yet Akin is the one who made the rape gaffe?
