Todd Akin Wants Your Forgiveness

"Used the wrong words in the wrong way and for that I apologize."

Missouri Senate Candidate Todd Akin released a new television ad today begging everybody's forgiveness for his dumbass comments about rape. Politico apparently landed the scoop, but it's all over the Internet now:

Incoherent quote: "The mistake I made was in the words I said, not in the heart I hold."

Politico also points out that the latest polls show Akin is still has a very slight lead over Democrat incumbent Sen. Claire McCaskill in the polls.
