Akin had no public campaign events Monday but issued a written statement calling on McCaskill to disclose details of a business deal involving federal tax credits that her husband, Joseph Shepard, allegedly closed in the Senate dining room. Akin's statement referenced a report last week by the online publication, The Daily Caller, about an audio recording in which one of Shepard's former employees, by Craig Woods, discusses Shepard's business deals involving low-income housing developments financed in part through tax credits. McCaskill's campaign has described Woods as a disgruntled former employee who lied to Shepard about his past criminal convictions involving fraud and embezzlement and dismissed his accusations as meritless. On Monday, Akin described Woods as a "whistleblower." "If Shepard was making business deals in the Senate dining room, that is a clear abuse of power and privilege," Akin said. McCaskill said, "It's October and I'm running for office and two things happen: The leaves change and they unfairly attack my husband." Reporter David Lieb in Jefferson City, Mo., contributed to this report.
