Guys like Akin wouldn’t be a problem without guys like Rove running to the sound of fire to start shooting at them.

The media will continue to do it because they know moderates will react like Pavlov’s dogs.

Exactly. And there are plenty of people who still don't get that. All anybody with half a brain has to do to fully understand this is look at what the media did to Palin during the 2008 election and ever since, and how morons like Rove jumped on that bandwagon with a fervor that should be reserved for enemies, not allies. But then again, a lot of Republicans AND Freepers are not particularly principled.
