God never sends incompetent messengers to do His work...

Huh? Were Jacob, Lott, or Saul gaffe-free before God called them into service? Heck, didn't Jacob run away? You've been waiting six years. Don't blow it. Look at Akin's record; if his voting record supports you, return the favor.

They weren't running for Senate in a swing state.

Look, I admire your hopeful idealism, but you've GOT to connect with the dire reality of this situation. Akin has irreparably alienated the majority of Missouri's electorate and is on a path to lose massively to an erstwhile beatable incumbent. If control of the Senate and by extension the future of this country weren't in the balance, then it might be somewhat entertaining to watch this drama unfold. But there are far larger ramifications at play here.

As I conservative I firmly believe in personal responsibility... A concept that seems to escape Akin and his national supporters.

Since this now is a 'religious' mission for Akin and his national supporters, do some homework... Actually I had Moses in mind when God sent one on a mission. Especially since 'abortion' has become a matter of so called settled 'law'! God sent Aaron along to do the talking. Now you just might be on to something by tossing in Saul. Lot was 'saved' because of Abraham. Lot was not smart enough on his own to leave Sodom. (Yes, I readily admit I went Bible shorthand, in the event somebody decides to give the full Scripture.)

I have repeatedly stated if I have NO other choice I will vote for Akin. IF he looses this election because of his incompetence his political career is done. Rightly or wrongly the only people he will be a martyr to are a few national supporters.
