So I guess this means that Akin won't be speaking at the GOP convention in Tampa next week?

LOL

Adkin has doubled down and said he will not pull out of the race.

I'm waiting to see if the GOP can force him to change his mind tomorrow via some coercion.
Edit: Mondy night, the RNC has pulled all funding from Akin for his senate race

But, if the GOP does get him off the ballot, they can't just put anybody else on. Maybe, legally, the second-place finisher in the GOP primary, if they can get Adkin to drop out before close of business tomorrow? Not sure about that, but must be true. Because otherwise they would be left with an empty slot next to "Republican for Senate" on the ballot.

The Republicans are getting rid of him just like the Democrats did when Barney Frank's prostitute boyfriend was running a whore house out of Frank's home, oh wait a minute.....

You know if someone gay touches you, it rubs off!

What is the implication Riot? I am for gay marriage, unlike you, I form my own opinions. I have yet to see you disagree with one policy of Obama's and you defend him against every criticismon this board. Did you suddenly evolve on gay marriage when Obama did? What a coincidence!!!

That, based upon your nasty comment about Barney Frank, you are a bigoted gay hater.
