Rep. Todd Akin has a new ad up in Missouri, attacking Sen. Claire McCaskill on the grounds that her six-year record in the Senate is worse than his six-second comment about “legitimate rape.” The ad is running statewide in Missouri, reports Politico.
“My six-second mistake is well known. But Claire McCaskill’s six-year record is something you should know,” Akin says, speaking directly to the camera. “McCaskill voted with Obama 98 percent of the time. She cast the deciding vote to pass Obamacare, that cuts Medicare by over $700 billion. She voted for Obama’s budget-busting stimulus spending and raised our taxes but didn’t pay her own.”
