Missouri Rep Todd Akin, is a man who has discovered almost over night what it feels like to be totally forsaken. High ranking members of the Republican Party, have already ask Akin, to drop out of the race for Missouri's Senate seat currently held by Senator Claire Mccaskill. Without question, Akin's remarks concerning the act or rape were totally without thought and completely inexcusable. He did apologize for his remarks but it appears, the political damage has been done I am almost in awe at the speed at which the republicans have forsaken Akin. I am reminded of these words from the Bile during Christ, crucifixion when the Bible, says, Christ disciples all forsook him and fled.Vice President Biden, makes a verbal mistake almost evey five seconds yet all the democrats, still gather around him and defend his every statement.Today, it seems Akin, can't even buy a friend no one in conservative politics wants any thing to do with him.
I have been known from time to time to say something in a moment of bad judgement. that later I lived to regret and when that happens all I can do is ask God, to forgive me and those I've offended for their forgiveness.
God, can forgive Todd Akin, but that task will be much harder for the members of the Republican Party. as well as the Missouri voters. Akin, must know that if he stays in the race for Missouri's senate seat and as a result Senator Claire Mccaskill, is reelected wiping out republicans chances to retake the Senate, Akin, could never show his face in conservative politics again. He seems, for now at least willing to take that risk. I am a poet from time to time and the following words sum up what I think Akin's political fate will be they are as follows; Todd Akin is forsaken though he regrets his foolish words and feels absolutely rotten, Akin, is forsaken and soon he'll be politically forgotten. As always my friends, these words remain, just, some words, to think on.
