She is sounding shrill and overly defensive on the Medicare cuts in Obamacare.

Exactly! And it sticks out like a sore throat. Most of her arguments (especially about Medicare) have already been debunked and the American people already know the truth.

The truth is NOT on her side.

McCaskill: There are a lot of things in the bill ...

[Pelosi: We gotta pass it to find out what is in it.]

He was portrayed as some knuckle dragging, ignorant doofus and he is destroying that image. Akin is winning this.

Thanks for the compliment. Sorry you are having problems with the steaming links. Yes, I guarantee there will be a transcript of the debate after it ends. I will be doing searches to make sure it gets on Free Republic threads. Have a nice day. Looks like we are gaining momentum and, God willing, will win this for Todd come Nov. 6th.

McCaskill says listening to the citizens is one of the most important duties of her as a politician.

[I don’t know whether she voted for Obamacare, but if she did, she wasn’t listenting to the people. According to Akin, some 70% of Missourians were/are opposed to Obamacare.]

McCaskill avoided the question “Libya/Egypt”. Instead talks about Iraq under Bush.

McCaskill is advocating pulling the infrastructure money going to Iraq and Afghanistan.

[YOU are in the Senate, do something! She is trying to run against GW Bush and those wars, but Obama is in charge of them, as of January 20, 2009.]

Hee hee....he is ON:) with hold money to Eygpt until they start acting like our ally. Akin said we made concessions to Russia and they haven’t done anything in return and we have shunned Netanyahu...he is right.
Akin’s son served in Iraq and Afghanistan...he is a marine combat engineer...locates bombs.

McCaskill twice invoking Harry Truman spinning in his grave.

Does the president from 60 years ago resonate with anyone?

One thread this morning indicated that DeMint may be considering releasing funds to Akin.

[This is the first time I have ever heard him, except for his non-apology statement. I am impressed.]

McCaskill basically said a Federal Budget bill was irrelevant.

Akin says it is a Constitutional mandate.
