Someone get this Akin character off the stage quick! Romney cannot afford to lose Missouri.
Election 2012: Missouri President - Rasmussen Reports™
Quote:
As the controversy over Republican Senate candidate Todd Akin’s “legitimate rape” comment continues, Mitt Romney’s lead in Missouri has vanished.
The latest Rasmussen Reports telephone survey of Likely Missouri Voters finds President Obama with 47% support to Romney’s 46%. Three percent (3%) favor some other candidate in the race, and three percent (3%) more are undecided.

Yeah PPP had him up +10 a few days ago but the Akin controversy is not helping matters hopefully it will die down.

At any rate RCP removed Missouri from Romney's column and has it as a tossup.

I never said Illinois or Minnesota were going to Romney. I challenge you to find the posts. Michigan is a good spot for Romney but I never said he would win. Now Ohio I've said he will win and stand by that comment.

Why do liberals have to lie to make their points? Is that you Debbie?

Simmer down there now. Obama is not winning Missouri and Akin will win the senate seat.

It's realistic Obama is weak across the board. When 60% of the country says were going in the wrong direction it can't be good for the incumbant.

If it makes you feel better I don't think Romney will win Pennsylvania.
