Could Trump hit Akin levels in Missouri?

If so how would such a result be extrapolated onto the rest of the map?

No.  It's a completely different person.  Trump is a New York billionaire business man that is obviously talking through his a$$ about this.  In other words, he doesn't have any deep held beliefs about abortion.  He is probably pro choice behind closed doors.  Everyone knows this.  People will be aghast about Trump's comment at first but shrug it off later.  Democrats will rightly use it for a political advantage.

The news cycle will change quickly as well.  The Republican primary is far from over.  If he made the comment a month before the general election like Akin did, it would have an impact.  I don't think it will with Trump.  I could be wrong though.

Yes, this is the break Dems were hoping for. Chris Koster is well on his way to being elected gov.  Although no one knows who Kander is of yet, I would advise Dems to spend money there as well as in OH.

Its easier for voters to write off their party's Senate candidate as a dud, and harder for voters to basically forfeit the presidency for their party.  Presidential races will inspire more party unity for that reason alone.

I think that Trump could end up with around 60% of the vote in Missouri, as Clinton isn't really that great of a fit for the state. I do think that there is going to be a sizable number of Trump/Kander voters however.
