We must elect a President in 2008 who is up to the task, and I need you to encourage Mitt to run. ... As a leader who has spent most of his life in the private sector, Governor Romney will call on America's strength and character to solve problems and secure our future.” - Senator DeMint

If you want to be VP, you really can’t endorse can you...
Cain has said DeMint would be a great VP choice for him.
Whew! I think DeMint knows that he would take a serious nosedive in support if he endorsed Romney in the primaires. The gop political landscape has significantly changed since the tea party revolution.
Does anyone if Palin will be endorsing Cain, or has made any recent statements about whether she will work for a candidate or not?
thank goodness.
Actually, I can see why he might decide to not endorse anyone depending on who the candidate turns out to be. He could just say anyone is an improvement over Barry and leave it at that. If Romney is the candidate, don't expect to see Jim trying to rally the troops on his behalf rather than honestly saying that voting for Romney is making the best of a bad situation and promising to try and keep Romney in check if he's elected.
JMHO
Never did believe this was true. Sounded like the hacks in the Romney campaign know full well their guy has HUGE credibility issues with Conservative Voters. This was probably a Romney campaign leak, a leak that had no more credibility than the Conservative bona-fides of Mitt Romney.
Thank God.
I saw the FR thread when this rumor first begun. Usually when some lib-wad starts agitating against conservatives - Many FReepers usually swallow it whole and start trash talking as if the rumor was true.
Fortunately - most FReepers recognized it as the BS it was.
a fabrication made up of ‘anonymous sources’ that obviously have no clue what Senator DeMint is thinking

I say flog the anonymous bastards..
and send Jim the email too. ;-]
...and there you have it! :)
