I do think it is important to let the FRiends know what kind of man they are throwing stones at. I wonder if those throwing the biggest stones could hold a candle to Akin's conservative credentials.

We're throwing stones at his intrasigence, not his background. Do you fail to see how he... all by himself... is running a dagger into any chance of flipping the Senate?

I don't understand the thinking of some people. It's not like we have 85% of the Senate already and a 4.5% unemployment rate and peace in the world and we're running a surplus.

We need every seat we can get and still I hear from some (not you) Oh, no big deal. Maybe he'll get a bump like Obama did after Bin Laden was killed

The only thing Akin is killing is our chances to repeal ObamaCare.
