This race is far from over, 3 months away from election day.
“Because they lost the primary!”
Only because Air Claire McCaskill pumped $2 million into ads to help get her hand-picked opponent - Akin.
She has the goods on him to stay 10 points ahead.
“This race is far from over, 3 months away from election day.”
This race is over. Akin is toxic. His PPP poll favorable / unfav were horrible. 60% unfavorable. 28% favorable. A majority want him out of the race. Ras poll has him 10 points down to Claire McCaskill, and that means he lost 20 points since last week.
IT MEANS AKIN IS NOW RUNNING 20 POINTS WEAKER THAN ANY OTHER REPUBLICAN UP AGAINST MCCASKILL!
It’s an absolute travesty to have Akin in there and lose, when you can have a good solid prolife conservative like John Brunner go in there and win big.
Akin is the Christine Odonnell of this season.
Hope is folly when you have a blunder that bad.
running for office is a job interview.... and Akin blew the interview.
