On this, I hope, we all agree. I would add, though, that since he is not dropping out, I definitely would vote for Akin if I lived in Missouri.
I think that’s probably what most conservatives would say also. Right now the polls reflect people wanting him to drop out, which is a different thing than how they would vote if he is their only choice against McCaskill.
Some are more concerned with whether the anti-woman story will successfully be pinned onto R&R or other R’s or conservatives. I just tend to think that if people are too stupid to figure out that R&R are not at war with women, then this country is too stupid to continue its own existence and it might be merciful for us to get Obama in there and all die a quick death at the hands of the Muslims rather than live as mindless, lifeless vegetables for a long, miserable time.
Ultimately this election is a verdict not on the candidates but on the American people. Specifically whether we deserve to keep living or deserve the death we choose. That’s what’s at stake here.
