  • DD is making the same point I was. Akin made those comments and then all of a sudden a sure thing turned into a complete failure - the rest of the conservatives wanted nothing to do with Akin after that, lest he taint the rest of the party (which unfortunately he did) by staying in.

    • Are you trying to make the assertion that the Democrats are good at political campaigning?
      Dude, do you know how much I got crapped on by Rombot conservatives the past 7 months when they all called me Eeyore? I'm not stupid - I know where the good intel is. Why do you think I was actually reassuring democrats who were scared about Obama's prospects? Have I ever posted anything saying that the polls were off after I learned my lesson in 08?

      See, I may be slow but I do learn. I noticed who was right last time and that's been a solid guide this time.

        And how did Romney's 'damage control' work? Was it effective? Did it actually make things worse? Absolutely. I'll go so far to say that this one decision of his cost the senate seats all over. Had Romney done nothing at all - Mourdock and Akin might still have lost - but he wouldn't have actually LOST senate seats due to the drop in conservative turnout.

        I realize this is hard to admit but Romney was a ****ty candidate.

        • Name me the Senate seats the Republicans would have won had Romney backed Akin after those reprehensible comments.

          Actually I think they likely would have lost more Senate seats if Romney had been that ****ing stupid.

            Reprehensible to say that children who are conceived in rape have a life worth living?

            North Dakota. Massachusetts too. Virginia and Montana. That's four off the top of my head.

            Nope, Cruz wasn't ever losing. All the close races in the Senate were lost. Every single one, so Romney's 'damage' control was horrible.

            I know you'll never admit it though, but that's ok. Blind fanaticism is a trait of the Obots and Rombots.

            • Akin's comments were reprehensible. You're conflating him with others. Akin was the 'legitimate rape' guy. No reasonable person on any side of any debate could defend his comments as anything beyond perhaps 'idiotic'.

                His statement that women who are raped are unlikely to conceive? There's scientific proof to back him up. Just because you find science distasteful doesn't make him wrong.

                  Would you accept newsmax as a source?

                  The long-discredited notion that rape victims cannot become pregnant - a claim that pushed Republicans to repudiate one of their own U.S. Senate candidates on Monday - dates back centuries to when human reproduction was hardly understood. But the medieval theory has...

                    Yes, there is. That's the real dispute isn't it? You dispute scientific evidence that exposes your trope as a myth.

                    What percentage of abortions done are done for this reason, MikeH?

                            That's actually not a counter argument. What percentage of all abortions occur because of rape?

                                Useless misdirection, Ben. Just stop.

                                What you need is "likelihood of conception after unprotected sex" delineated for Raped vs. Consenting.
