All Akin had to do to win was keep his damned mouth shut for 10 weeks. He couldn’t even manage that.
McCaskill got what she paid for. Ugh. Didn’t Missouri Republicans WONDER why the liberal Dem McCaskill was buying ads in SUPPORT OF AKIN?
This entire trainwreck is so depressing.

Almost none of them can. Their egos are too big. This is much the same thing that happened in Colorado in 2010 with Ken Buck. That Senate seat was virtually a lock for us. But Buck is a fool with a mile-high ego. Unfortunately, his IQ seems to be room temperature. He kept jamming his size 12 cowboy boots into his pie hole, and why, they just naturally stayed there.
