Because the alternative is a communist!

(etc)

Hey, I want Akin to win. I would vote for him, if I were in Missouri. (If I were a cheatin' Democrat, I would vote for him anyway!)

But no amount of support from the National GOP can drag this guy over the line if he keeps shooting himself in the foot. A cigar store indian could beat Claire McCaskill, but a cigar store indian say quite so many stupid things.

The Democrat War on Women strategy is dead in the water in every state besides Missouri. Sandra Fluke is speaking in front of crowds of 10 in Nevada. Romney is gaining big time in the women's vote. These are things we need to do to win.

If the GOP embraced Akin and his serial idiocies, the War on Women theme would take off again, and we could lose the whole shooting match. And Akin would probably step on his crank the day before election day and lose his race anyway.

Did the gop establishment back away from John McCain? he made much worse remarks than Akin.

"You know, the French remind me a little bit of an aging actress of the 1940s who is still trying to dine out on her looks but doesn't have the face for it."

"I said, 'The nice thing about Alzheimer's is you get to hide your own Easter eggs.'"

"At least I don't plaster on the makeup like a trollop, you c*nt." -to his wife, Cindy, after she playfully twirled his hair and said "You're getting a little thin up there," as reported in the book The Real McCain by Cliff Schecter

"Do you know why Chelsea Clinton is so ugly? Because Janet Reno is her father." --at a 1998 Republican fundraiser

"Did you hear the one about the woman who is attacked on the street by a gorilla, beaten senseless, raped repeatedly and left to die? When she finally regains consciousness and tries to speak, her doctor leans over to hear her sigh contently and to feebly ask, 'Where is that marvelous ape?'" --a joke McCain reportedly told during his first Senate race in 1986

Not to mention his remarks on hating "gooks" for the rest of his life.

what’s your point about living in a different state? haa. Just kidding.

How about convincing any other folks you know that DO live in MO to get on baord. She is ONE evil, crooked politician and we need to dump those like yesterday’s paper.
