Senate candidate Todd Akin is a legitmate crackpot. GOP men continue to wage war on women by redifing rape - and biology. Not happy with that? A new app will allow you to text a donation to the Obama campaign. Meanwhile, Prince Harry's strip billards party goes viral, the French order McDonalds from their smartphones and find out your hobo name. Don't believe us? Apparently only 2% of this is true.

The GOP Senate candidate says women can't get pregnant from what he called "legitimate rape". That statement is wrong, of course, on a couple of levels, but it's a fairly common belief on the fringe right.

Just in case you thought Sarah Palin "dropping out" of speculation that she would run for President in 2012 late last year was serious, mark this date and item from @YahooNews down somewhere. Why would Palin expose herself to months of ridicule as part of the GOP clown car primaries and give up cushy paying day job at FOX News when she can swan in, say in June or July, and cause so much chaos? She's the darling of the Tea Party and her lack of smarts won't hurt her as much this time around. After all, Rick Santorum has already said you're a snob if you go to college. [Note: We understand Palin has a 4-year degree from somewhere, but hey, it doesn't count if you never really use it!]

If the Twitter reaction is any indication, Rep. Todd Akin (R-Mo.) may have cost himself a Senate seat with his controversial comments about rape and pregnancy.

There is no shortage of opinions on Twitter about this year's presidential race and candidates. The Twitter Political Index, or Twindex, launched this week will track tweets that mention President Barack Obama or presumptive Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney. It's an attempt to measure the public's shifting moods, as well as to establish Twitter as "a platform for civic debate."
