This is really sad. The $$ spent by McCaskill and the Rats on Akins primary campaign are paying off big time. Not only do they get a loose cannon who puts his mouth in motion before he puts his brain in gear. The guy implodes only a few days after the primary.
Now, as is clear from this and other threads here, they have succeeded in blowing apart the tenuous coalition between the social conservatives and, for lack, of a better word, fiscal conservatives.
Like a lot of people here, I see myself as both but there is a lot of tension between the two groups. I do not buy into this "GOPe" crap but many here do.
Now we get fools like Huckabee fanning this fire and apparently hoping it breaks apart the GOP.
Well, as the signers of the Declaration of Independence knew, we better hang together or we will all hang separately. The only thing sadder than the sorry spectacle being played out here is the shape of the U.S. after four more years of Obama. Even if Romney wins but the Rats still control the Senate, his hands will be tied and God knows what will happen if some of the conservative Supremes retire or die.
All of this for only a few million dollars.

Bullshit!
You and all those like you are destroying conservative poilitics across the country. We need a solid wall against Rove & Co. and guys like you are stealing the bricks to throw at our candidate.

The guy implodes only a few days after the primary. If he insists on staying in, how many more implosions is he going to uncork?
