Good for Akin for hanging in there; nice to see someone resist “borking”. Hope it pays off, but even if it doesn’t good for him.

BUMP that. I agree 100%.
I still cannot believe that one (relatively minor) gaffe by Akin sent the GOPe into a hand-wringing conniption fit and had them running from the Democrat "mainstream" newsrooms like scared little bunnies. Pathetic.

I admire Akin's guts for standing up and telling those cowards (including a few around here) to go play in the street.
Go, Todd.

That’s right; he was in good shape to win his race, and the Dem media saw a chance to pounce & took it. It will be awkward for those Repubs who called on him to step down if he wins...
