But the original selection process went fine. Politicians are people too (all evidence to the contrary). They make mistakes.

With Angle in 2010 and Akin in 2012 "the original selection process" -- the Republican Primary, was compromised when the Democrats spent large sums of money on advertising to win the nomination for Angle and Akin, because they knew Angle and Akin were idiots, who would give Reid and McCaskill their best shot at winning.

Republicans need to stop defending Angle and Akin, and admit that we were punked. If we keep allowing the Democrats to select our nominees by running ads during the Republican Primaries, we are going to keep losing seats that are ours for the taking.
