He said he "misspoke" regarding his famous legitimate rape comments. Were his latest comments about Claire McCaskill a mistake, where he claimed she was "unladylike" in her first debate?
No. Instead, he's doubling down:
"On the heels of saying Claire McCaskill's performance at the Missouri Senate debate wasn't "ladylike," Todd Akin compared Democratic Senator's demeanor at the debate to that of a caged animal.
"The first two minutes, wow, it's like somebody let a wildcat out of the cage," Akin told supporters Thursday according to the Los Angeles Times. "She was just furious and attacking in every different direction, which was a little bit of a surprise to us."

Well this is a political campaign where you're trying to take away her Senate seat? Was she not supposed to fight back, Congressman?
What does it say about Missouri that this race is still so close? No doubt, we wanted it to be close before Tuesday-the 25th-so Akin would think he can win and stay in the race.
He's just a gift that keeps on giving. Dems across the country should just keep quoting him.
