Please see my post #11. People, can’t you see the press is stirring this up from the last election just to get conservatives upset. Geez, if you believe this stuff we have no hope for 2012 because whether DeMint, Palin, or Bachman get nominated the press plans to tear them to shreds and even folks on FR fall for the games being played.

DeMint does no longer support Romney. Read his book why don’t ya!

“One of the reasons I endorsed Romney [in 2008] is his attempts to make private health insurance available at affordable prices,” said Sen. Jim DeMint (S.C.)

To the best of my knowledge DeMint was failed to publicly criticize the wisdom of RomneyCare. Negative comments have only come from unnamed staffers.

I have never trusted demint. So my opinion has not changed, but I will concede the liberal hit job here.

The progs know how easy it is to roll conservatives. They do it on every issue and every candidate, every election.

When conservatives resist being played, the next tactic is always to single out one or more conservatives and broadcast anything they ever said or did that isn’t pure conservatism. They use the word hypocrite, the conservatives join in and another donkey is elected, another link of the chain of slavery is forged and the progs just keep on, keeping on.

If a conservative cannot be rolled or painted as a hypocrite, then they are attacked as crazy, extremist and made a laughing stock. This is also successful, because it removes the independents from supporting that candidate and their issues.

I cannot remember one single conservative that hasn’t been the object of this strategy. It has worked so well, for so long that you just come to expect it.
