When Todd Akin won the nomination, I feared that something like this would happen. I don’t believe Akin is a hater or misogynist, but he’s certainly guilty of being inept. In a way, Akin has lived in a political bubble, always running in safely Republican affluent neighborhoods and never facing a competitive general election, so he’s never had to watch what he said. This is one of the reasons I supported Sarah Steelman, who in spite of her flaws has won competitive general elections (and is quite a beauty, as well). I hoped that I would prove wrong about Akin. Sometimes, there is no joy in being proven right.
Well you were 100% right, I thought you were being obtuse.
I would have voted for this schmuck if I were a MO primary voter. I hope his prayers are answered in a way that doesn’t screw over the country.
