Will be interesting to see how the DNC and such react here.

Will they be like the RNC and throw him under the bus and wash their hands of him, or will they be like the DNC usually is and circle the wagons?

I still think Akin could have won in Missouri if the RNC realized that people make mistakes and rallied in support of him instead of throwing him to the wolves.

probably true. The RNC assumed that they had to throw him to the wolves or else the media would pain all republicans with a broad brush, equivocating all republicans with Akin if they didn't distance themselves from him. The joke was on the RNC because the media did it anyways.

Hopefully it hurts him but most of the polls i've seen had him way up.

I don't have as much faith in Iowa and Wisconsin as some others do.

Probably not since most Dems probably agree with the statement.
