The GOP-igs are notorious for making issues out of non issues and running with it. They do this because should any of them ever run on real sustance, such as job creations, gun control, how to address the growing poverty in our country or anything that requires real solutions and real debate....they know they'd loose, so they run on the fear factor...homosexuality, abortion, gun owners rights and scaring the hell out of old senile rednecks. Thank God this rape issue has forced these cowards into a real debate, something they've avoided since the Reagan years!!
