Akin did not make a bone head statement. He made a statement that he and Ryan believe in. It reinforces his base. His base would vote for him regardless of what he says. The independents are what he has to worry about as that seems to be where elections are won and lost. If there were people who were on the fence, that type of comment could push people one way or the other.

I would never vote for someone like Akin. I support a persons unfettered right to control their own body. In my mind that right is absolute and government has absolutely no right to intervene.
