The Family Research Council’s PAC defended embattled Rep. Todd Akin (R-MO) in a press release on Monday. 

“This is another case of ‘gotcha politics’ against a conservative leader,” FRC Action President Connie Mackey said in a statement. “Todd Akin has a long and distinguished record of defending women, children and families. He has fought against forcing taxpayers to subsidize abortion giant Planned Parenthood, which is the bedrock of Claire McCaskill’s base of support.”

He conclude by saying: “We know Todd Akin, and FRC Action PAC enthusiastically endorses his candidacy.”
