Money's the icing on a pendulum cake IMO.

Claire McCaskill is Blanche Lincoln.  Nothing can save her from a landslide loss.

This. But Akin will make it a bit harder.

She'll lose in the upper singles or low doubles rather than 20 but similar dynamic. State is rapidly Republicanizing and she's hung out to dry.

Charlie Cook thinks she still has a chance with Akin but I agree with Chuck Todd that she's done. IMO Akin is a Berg, not an Angle. (Around 6:15 or so)

Results will start coming in any minute. Brunner's base is western MO and St. Louis, Steelman rural counties, Akin STL/rural.

Very first results from 2 rural counties: Steelman 47, Akin/Brunner 23.

I say Akin unless Steelman pulls a miracle.

Lesson learnt from MO/NE: Whoever mudslings the least closest to P-Day wins.
