The MSM has once again shown its power to influence GOP behavior. Every Rep candidate will have to walk on eggshells for fear of making a politically incorrect or stupid statement, especially if it involves women, race, gays, or ethnicity. Self-censorship is the worst censorship of all. The GOP reaction to Akin just reinforces the MSM's control over the GOP. Akin will not be the last Rep sacrificed to the MSM and the Dems. And he certainly wasn't the first. In the meantime, the Dems can say and do anything they want without consequence. Sometimes it is better to stand up to a bully, rather than cower and give him your lunch money.
If Akin stays in, I want you to watch the Democrat Convention, because now it will be “The Party of Akin’s War on Women Show.” Then after that watch the polls nationally (not just in Missouri) and tell me how they are trending.
