I kept waiting all day long for him to drop out

[bluestateguy]

I was convinced he would.

I admit to being wrong, and this time that is a good thing.

[janlyn]

1. Didn't think he would

I for one am glad !!!

Time to show america just how out of touch with reality these republicans are..

[RagAss]

2. Why is it a good thing ?

This is Missouri we're talking about. He's going to win and win big.

[Fumesucker]

4. Because anyone else that's likely to win in Missouri is going to vote exactly the same way..

And now we get to paint the Republicans with Akin until the election..

[RagAss]

7. But that will just fire up their base nationwide.

When some of us on this forum labeled them Evil, we were laughed at, called haters and put on ignore.
Now it's real....and it's too late.

[Fumesucker]

8. The base is gonna vote no matter what..

But some of the low information voters can be swayed away from the Republicans if the crazy is sufficiently exposed..

Even some of the Democratic base can be more motivated by this as well..

[Fumesucker]

3. You just don't know them the way we redstaters do..

When you live in the belly of the beast you get to know it...err... intimately shall we say.

5. watch, the gop will start funneling money to him again

there's a senate seat and possibly control of the senate at risk.

they will tell women to fuck off from a high mountain before they risk the senate

[wryter2000]

6. I thought he would, too

I was sure he'd drop out. I'm happy to be wrong.
