Todd Akin wasn't tea party. He was establishment and a Mike Huckabee protege. Steelman was the tea party candidate.

The problem is people who are stupid with their mouths. Their mouths are the problem, not their views. People in even liberal districts will vote for strong conservatives who are competent legislators and won't embarrass us. Pro-life candidates have won in the social liberal Philly suburbs of all places.

Candidates are stupid with their mouths because they have no core beliefs, they are actors playing the role of a conservative because they think that’s the best way to get elected, so they have to think, “Ok what can I say that will get conservatives to like me?”.....and so you get statements like Akin and Mourdock’s, and Romney’s incredibly politically tone-deaf “47%” comment.
