The fallout continues from GOP Senate candidate and current Representative Todd Akin's incredibly stupid comments on rape and pregnancy. Akin canceled an interview with CNN's Piers Morgan; Morgan actually called Akin "gutless little twerp" and opened his show with a shot of the empty chair.
Even Romney and Ryan have rebuked Akin for the comment -- according to spokeswoman Amanda Henneberg, "Governor Romney and Congressman Ryan disagree with Mr. Akin's statement, and a Romney-Ryan administration would not oppose abortion in instances of rape."
And yet, a poll by Public Policy Polling shows that while 75 percent of Missouri voters say Akin's comments were inappropriate, he's still up 44 to 43 percent over Claire McCaskill.
