Wow.
Looks like a miracle may have happened for Senator McCaskill.
We may hold the Senate.

(6,996 posts)Akin had better bail out himself...and soon. Repukes have very little time to replace him on the ballots (if that's even possible?).

(2,921 posts)No sufficient time for a replacement unless Steelman wants to be the sacrificial lamb.

(50,260 posts)Rove and his despicable PAC knew EXACTLY where Akins stood on this and still spent over a million in ads supporting him.
They are only pulling their support in hopes of forcing him to back out so they can pour more millions in ads for another equally despicable repub candidate.

(6,996 posts)McConnell says Akin should take time off with his family and consider dropping out. This guy is toast.
When KKKarl and Yertle throw you under the bus, you are radioactive beyond measure. Apparently there is someone too damaging for even those snake-fucking fart-eaters to tolerate.
Nelson Muntz is laughing at you, Akin.

(2,921 posts)More problems for the Republicans to try to resolve, albeit far too late to fix anything.
Akins is done, and McCaskell holds for another 6 more years - and then replaced by a true Democrat. She is still a DINO.

(1,185 posts)that they are oozing out and unfortunately for them, you can't fix Stupid or Clueless. Even Christine McDonnell is back on the scene!
But never "misunderestimate" the public's penchant for political denial.

(154,021 posts)mark your calendars, Akin just lost the election... and perhaps even Romney (due to Ryan's close relationship with Akin)

(34,845 posts)It's another when you try in desperation to grab your boss for help. He just tied himself to Ryan and therefore Romney and that's considered a no-no to Republicans. He will soon be gone.
