Todd Akin (R. MO) continues to haunt the GOP:

The pro-choice group NARAL is going after state Sen. Joni Ernst, the Republican nominee for U.S. Senate in Iowa, urging viewers to press her on the anti-abortion group Susan B. Anthony List, which is named after a prominent suffragist and feminist from the early 20th century.

"Who does the List support? People like Todd Akin—who said women’s bodies could prevent pregnancies during 'legitimate rape,' a narrator in the 60-second ad released Thursday said. "Or Richard Mourdock, who said pregnancy from rape is 'something God intended to happen.' They oppose abortion, even in cases of rape and incest."

The ad then moves toward Ernst.

"So when you see an ad by the Susan B. Anthony List: Don't be fooled by the name. They're as anti-woman as it gets. Call Joni Ernst and ask her: Do you stand with Iowa women and families…or the extreme agenda of the Susan B. Anthony List?" - TPM, 10/16/14
