In a bad sign for Todd Akin,Crossroads yanks Missouri ads [View all]
Another ominous sign for embattled Missouri GOP Senate candidate Todd Akin: the heavyweight conservative groups American Crossroads and Crossroads GPS are pulling out of the state and halting their advertising against Akin’s opponent, Democratic Sen. Claire McCaskill.
“The act speaks for itself,” Crossroads spokesman Nate Hodson said Monday.
Akin caused a furor Sunday after suggesting in a television interview that women who have experienced “legitimate rape” can biologically prevent a pregnancy.
