You mean the DeMint who endorsed Lindsey Grahamesty and Mittens? Don’t get me wrong, I love DeMint, but he’s had some questionable endorsements as well. And as much as I like his positions, he’s certainly not Mr. Personality. In this media-driven world that’s going to be a handicap.
Newt’s done-—he’ll never win a primary. I discussed this with my mom and her Republican women’s club members. Every one of them remember Newt dumping his ex-wife while she was hospitalized and being treated for cancer-—and for a new and younger woman. None of them can tolerate to even look at him. He would have a very difficult time with older voters who recall the incident well. And don’t think it won’t be brought up over and over again by Romney et al.

Yeah, that’s the guy — you looking for perfection? It’s not out there. Does not exist. Palin endorsed Fiorina - yuck — Cheney is endorsing Whitman, also here in CA — not a good thing.
See what I mean? No perfection out there — take what you can get. I like DeMint - but the candidate will probably be Romney.
