Look, dude, seriously, I don't want you to take my advice, but when your own party pulls $5M from your budget and pressures you to step down while denouncing what you've said about women (which were rather remarkable soundbites, btw), you pretty much gotta face facts. You're alone out there. You're toast, dude. But keep going! Stay the course! Pip pip, and all that rot! You're a total nutjob! We love you! You give a real face to the Taliban rethugs!

Or, will Akin suffer an aching blowout in the election rather than a tight "one percent short" loss?
