The Missouri Republican Party is reportedly helping to fund a new ad for Rep. Todd Akin featuring a woman who says she survived rape and had an abortion.

“I’m a single mother — a woman who’s had an abortion,” Kelly Burrell explains in the television commercial. “I’ve been raped in my past.”

“The reason I’m voting for Todd, and that I’m so proud of him, is because he defends the unborn, he’s a kind man,” she adds.
