He defines 'legitimate' rape as 'forcible' rape.

So Huckabee gave Akin a chance to apologize for the comment, and he did -- he said something that was "wrong," and hurtful to rape victims. Good so far. But right after that, Huckabee prodded Akin to define what he meant by "legitimate." Did he mean "forcible"?

Yes, said Akin. "I was talking about forcible rape," he said. "I used the wrong word."
