On the heels of saying Claire McCaskill’s performace at the Missouri Senate debate wasn’t “ladylike,” Todd Akin compared Democratic Senator’s demeanor at the debate to that of a caged animal.

“The first two minutes, wow, it’s like somebody let a wildcat out of the cage,” Akin told supporters Thursday according to the Los Angeles Times. “She was just furious and attacking in every different direction, which was a little bit of a surprise to us.”
