The GOP aren’t the one’s making it a national issue. I’ve turned on CNN and MSNBC 4 times today, that is ALL they are talking about. Akin gave the Dems a freebie and they are going to run with it and milk it for every last drop they can get.

And that's the rub isn't it? Noone is upset because Akin is so pro-life that he tries to defend this position in all circumstance - factually wrong or right - he's a no-go because, now, the libs get to "milk it".

And that's what's pissing everyone off.

So Akin is wrong on a fact. This is not the first time its happened, and it won't be the last.

But, but, but . .. OUR CANDIDATES are supposed to be perfect! Yes, that's it - make one little comment that makes us look bad, so we abandon you.

I have news for all of you who worry about the libs milking a mistake: The libs are gonna milk any tit in their sight. Fall for it. They know you will. So do it.

But, but, but . .. OUR CANDIDATES are supposed to be perfect!

Not quite.

But they are supposed to be able to articulate their position on fundamental elements of our platform.

Not necessarily effectively. But at least coherently.

Akin, unfortunately, proved greivously unequal to the task.
