Nothing about this in yesterday’s or today’s St. Joseph News Press. And our local podunk news cast (KQ2) didn’t say anything about it yesterday either.
I think it’s being buried.
The story is getting a tiny bit of traction in alternative media sources (like here) but a big fat zero in the “mainstream”. Since the media won’t do its job, whoever is funding the Akin campaign — if anyone is — needs to get ads on the air ASAP.
I still think Akin could win anyway, but there’s likely to be a LOT of ticket-splitting here; right-thinking people can’t stand Claire but they just won’t be able to pull the Akin lever since he is so ‘damaged’. Pity is that McCaskill would be much MORE damaged than Akin (who would then win in a landslide) if the media wasn’t a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Democrat party, and would just once report the truth about a corrupt Rat bastard.
