His base is energized by Akin's straightforward statement of "no abortion for any reason" and his use of the anti-abortion meme that "good women can't get pregnant from rape", in other words, God will take care of His (no gender issues here) faithful women voters. Any withdrawal of funds from the race can be interpreted by Akin's campaign as "anti-Christian" and the campaign can milk the conservative Protestant Christian love for posing as martyrs. Akin undoubtedly regards Romney as a non-Christian, and is not likely to listen to any Mormon.NancyPnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10755833.post-50695039766231611022012-08-21T17:28:28.480-05:002012-08-21T17:28:28.480-05:00Unfortunately, many of his supporters don't ca...Unfortunately, many of his supporters don't care what he says. He could say that the world is flat and they wouldn't bat an eye. They say to themselves "Is he a Republican? Is he prolife? Is he male and white? Good, then I'll vote for him".

Furthermore, Akin just lost the 5 million dollars he was slated to receive from the Republican National Senate Campaign folks. Akin has just been through an expensive primary, and now he has to try to persuade major campaign donors to fund him despite the official party brush-off. <br /><br />I doubt that Akin will step down before the Tuesday 5 PM deadline for withdrawal from the general election. He has been polling well up to now, and his ego is still going strong. I dearly hope that he will stay in the race. Sarah Steelman (the also ran in the primary) might have a better chance of attracting Republican money at this point.NancyPnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10755833.post-79178170567416272592012-08-20T16:25:30.218-05:002012-08-20T16:25:30.218-05:00Thanks,Pamela.

The 36% of the GOP primary voters who chose him to be their standardbearer knew what they were getting, even if they hadn't heard him make these kind of remarks.<br /><br />Think on this: the areas of the state that gave Akin the biggest amount of support were his own district (north and west of St. Louis), John Ashcroft territory in the southwestern part of the state, and Rush Limbaugh's southeast corner of Missouri.<br /><br />It's folks like these in an earlier generation that set Samuel Clemons on his path as the political and social satirist known as Mark Twain. I can only imagine what Akin & Co. will inspire in today's young people.
