Rep. Connie Mack, the Republican nominee for Senate in Florida, said Monday that Rep. Todd Akin’s false comment about rape and pregnancy was on par with Vice President Joe Biden’s statement last week declaring that the GOP would put people back in “chains.”
“Like Joe Biden’s comments last week, I find Todd Akin’s comments made Sunday to be just as outrageous and offensive. Such insulting and offensive remarks from Joe Biden and Todd Akin have no place in our political discourse.”
