Mourdock: Pregnancy from rape is 'something that God intended to happen’

Richard Mourdock: The Ken Buck of 2012.

There's a difference. Norton would likely be Senator right now, but she would have only edged Bennett by a couple points. Here, Lugar would be leading by over 20 points and Democrats wouldn't even be contesting it.

The Courier-Journal (Louisville) just endorsed Donnelley.

Somewhere in Indiana, a man named Brad Ellsworth is kicking himself.

I can't believe he cried when he was talking about the impact of what he said. What a loser. He doesn't deserve anything, and especially not to win.

How dare a politician be emotional about an emotional topic.

[Lief 🗽]

It's pretty insulting that he's crying about losing an election. What about the women who are actually raped and can't terminate the pregnancy because of assholes like him? They're the ones that should be crying.

He has to take a decisive step now, or this will slip away from him. If he does something then he can squeak out a 2 point win, maybe 3 at most on Mittens coatails.

Why not say who you voted for already?

There's a reason there are private ballots. I'll likely let it slip at some point, but this gaffe just further proves what an awful array of candidates there was to choose from. There are a lot of Democrats and Republicans out there I'd rather have than these two.

Voting for anybody but Mourdock means supporting election of Donelly who will act/vote/do/think in lockstep with Pelosi, Reid and Obama (if he is reelected).

Norton was completely overrated and a bigot in her own right (anti-Muslim, said nothing as Obama is called a Muslim by her braindead supporters, etc). There's a great chance she would have crashed and burned too. The same goes for Sue Lowden, whose moronic comments about trading chickens for healthcare were a MAJOR factor in her primary loss that people forget about. Who's to say she wouldn't have continued to be an incompetent idiot in her campaign against Reid?

Lugar actually would be winning since he's obviously a political veteran, but he's also a disgusting human being and way too old to be serving in the Senate, so I'm glad he went down in flames.

Wait, you think the guy who focused on reducing the number of nukes in the world is disgusting? Okay.

Sorry, a glob of undifferentiated cells is not a person. If we were to ban abortion, we might as well make fellatio and menstruation a crime because those cells had "the POTENTIAL!!!11" to be a person.

I'd love to hear Tea-partiers try and talk about that topic as well...

Yes, I'd love to hear responsible, mature leaders talk about why it isn't the best comparison and why we're not just talking about "a glob."

But tell me more about how the rhetoric of Tea Partiers keeps people from working together...

Newt Gingrich told the Obama campaign, re: Mourdock's comment, "Get over it."
