Todd Akin insults women and further divides party

Republican Senate candidate Todd Akin, who coined the phrase “legitimate rape”, had quite a time last week.

First, he admitted to being jailed for events surrounding a pro-life rally a couple of decades ago, attacked women again – speakng out against fair pay, and a key staff member compared him to David Koresh during the seige at Waco – but in a positive way.

Ed Schultz hits the high points and gets reaction from Senior Contributing writer for Newsweek and the Daily Beast, Michelle Goldberg, and Ari Melber, correspondent for The Nation.
