Todd Akin is another example of a man whom the media destroyed. I knew nothing of Todd Akin prior to his being derailed in his Senate bid, but I knew of Roy Moore for his courageous stand against the Federal dictators who were trying to impose "gay" marriage on the state, as well as for the Ten Commandments challenge.
Most other Republican office holders are simply too cowardly to make such a stand.
If we keep electing milksops, we shouldn't be surprised when they don't fight.
So, what do you think about George Allen and "Macaca" ?
BINGO.
Todd Akin was a fool.
His outright stupidity caught up with him.
George Allen, OTOH, was sunk by the willful Washington Post and the rest of the idiots in the media.
To this day, I won’t listen to a damn thing Larry Sabato says.
He was a good man whom the Republican leadership ran away from when he answered a media "gotcha" question on rape.
Akin fell to what Mark Levin calls a pseudo-event. Moore fell to the same, except that he was targeted by McConnell instead of McConnell running away scared.
