Why? So the Republicans can replace him with another extremist whom can keep his mouth shut- and then start talking like this (and pushing severe anti-choice bills) after he's safely elected to a six-year term? Let's think this through. He's pretty much handed McCaskill a second term IMHO.

Every time this idiot opens his mouth, it makes Claire's re-election a little easier.

I want to watch him debate Claire. She gets to bring this up to his face now in front of the cameras.

Will be one of the highlights of the 2012 election, if you ask me.
