Akin says he is staying in the race

Read the story here.

This guy is toast. As in stick a fork in him, he's done. There are some things in this world that you can't say and be forgiven for (at least in politics) and he crossed that line. Right now Akin couldn't get elected as dog catcher in a county with a rabies infestation. But he has no real motive to kowtow to the GOP big shots since they did absolutely nothing to help him win the nomination. Long story reduced to short form is that the Missouri Senate seat which should have been a GOP gain is now almost certainly a Democratic hold. And this clown could give the Dems a lot of ammo in other races with tea party very hard right nominees. It will be interesting to see how this pans out.
