The Akin thesis

For Democrats celebrating Todd Akin's mis-speak, they need to remember Virginia in 2009.
It is reminiscent of Gov. Bob McDonnell’s 17-point win, when the Democrats and much of the media wanted to talk about McDonnell’s school thesis (I kid you not) on social issues. What mesmerizes Democratic elites is often irrelevant to actual voters.
Talk about jobs, and you can get the job.
