Oh gosh. This is nuts. The Akin Campaign sees today’s Rasmussen poll where he slipped 12 points below liberal Sen. Claire McCaskill as a good sign.
From the Todd Akin website:
St. Louis, MO: The following statement was released by Perry Akin, Campaign Manager for Todd Akin for Senate, in response to the Rasmussen poll released this morning:
“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.”
More… Todd Akin Honey Badger don’t care.
UPDATE: No need to worry… It’s just a flesh wound.
