How can the Republican Akin backlash best discourage the RW vote?

If I was a sinister Left Wing billionaire I would be doing targeted direct mailing to "values voters" (in important places like Cincinnati, rural Virginia, etc.) saying (truthfully) that when Akin took a stand for the rights of the unborn in all instances, Romney told him his view has no place in the Republican Party.

If I was a sinister Left Wing billionaire.

Which I am not. At least, not a billionaire.

Seriously... if I was a rabid anti-choicer I would be livid over the way they're throwing Akin under the bus.
