Akin camp: Ask Claire McCaskill to drop out if she can't hit 50%

[TroyD]

My, my! We have a feisty one on our hands!

Rep. Todd Akin (R-Mo.) is ten points down in the latest Rasmussen poll, but he’s feeling bullish. Campaign manager Perry Akin says in a statement:

“The fact that Claire McCaskill is only polling at 48% after 72 hours of constant negative attacks on Todd Akin shows just how weak she is. If she can’t break fifty percent after a week like this, Democrats should ask Claire to step down. Todd is in this race to win; we will close this gap and win in November with the support of the grassroots in Missouri and across America.”

2. New strategy----they're not ahead by enough, so they should drop out!

I guess it's worth a shot.

10. Why should she depend on the polls to determine what she should do

After all, many of the polls are not accurate as they have a right bent to them. So what Akin is saying is we've rigged the polls so you don't look like you're over 50% and we think you should drop out if you aren't over 50%. Way to go, you freaking crooks.
