cool beans
I wouldn’t put too much confidence in a poll that had internals as wacky as this one.
If this is true, then this is truly bad news for Obama.
Our GOPe go-along posters here are going to have an absolute fit. They promised us Akin was DONE. I’m sure they’ll try twice as hard to destroy him though after reading this. After all, it’s what Rove and Romney want.
Good to hear. You go Todd!
I’d like to believe it because McCaskill really needs to be booted.
The poll smells fishy to me, though.
Hang in there, Akin, don’t let the screeching banshees ruin your resolve.
He’d be doing even better if so many conservative hadn’t fled from him like chickens.
Very cool.
The problem with Akin is that he’ll keep making mistakes. The ‘legitmate rape’ idiocy was not an isolated incident. It’s part of a pattern that will now receive enormous scrutiny.
The best strategy for him at this point is to disappear, so that the focus can move back to McCaskill. He should not campaign at all. Reporters will only ask him about rape and then write articles about it. Akin should move into his basement and only come out after the elections.
Now the big question and test, is if Akin can keep his mouth and “wisdom” shut about abortion and rape, and focus on the real issue of getting Claire McCaskill out of the Senate.
Video of a TV interview last night. http://www.wtsp.com/news/local/story.aspx?storyid=270685
Does a good job of getting his ‘talking points’ in.
People said he did horribly in an interview with Hannity so I was glad to see him doing very well in this.
I stand by Akin, I know that. Yeah, he kind of put his foot in his mouth, but what politician/media type gets scientific facts correct all the time? He touched on a truth, and the liberals and moderates from both parties jumped all over him.
They completely ignored the context: Akin is saying there should be no "exemption" on abortion for rape. And I agree with him.
GO TODD AKIN!
And the RNC still refuses to support him.
MEN love people who stick to their guns, like Akin did. Whiners complain, whine, and fret about what might happen! Keep praying for Akin folks! He certainly isn’t getting any help from the leftist GOP!
The Country Club and most Freepers are deeply troubled by this.
Pray for America
Akin said a stupid thing, but that has rarely been a disqualifier for a politician. People have short memories.
This guy may not play well with the RINO GOPers that is why they wanted him out.
I guess the Missouri folks got a bit curious about what Akin’s meant to say despite the radical meme promoted by the hysterical idiots.
