David Axelrod is on it:

In an interview with The Huffington Post on Monday, chief Obama strategist David Axelrod said the comments reflected the larger philosophy of the GOP presidential ticket.

He predicted that the public would find the remarks even more distasteful once it became widely known that Romney's running mate, Rep. Paul Ryan (R-Wis.), teamed up with Akin on strict anti-abortion measures.

"When you look at who Akin's partner was on all the anti-choice legislation, it was Paul Ryan," said Axelrod. "When you look at the legislation that would limit a women's right to choose, even for victims of rape and incest, that is the Akin-Ryan position. And frankly, by endorsing personhood amendments ... Romney has gone there too. This is the prevailing position of the Republican Party."

Every Democrat needs to say the same thing every time they are near a microphone.

They need to string these guys together and create an asshole necklace for Ryan to wear around his neck.

welfare cuts, no abortion for rape....all his crazy ass ideas that pop up from other crazies like Akin

It amazes me that MR picked him - it strikes me that MR must be one stupid son of a bitch. His team was against it ..but he insisted.

Can't wait to see what's next. Last week medicare. This week abortion and rape.
