Will Alvin Greene run now?
To: therightliveswithus
Can’t blame DeMint for not running... he probably LIKES his sanity. Besides, he never made any moves leading anyone to believe he had designs on the WH, anyway. He’s effective where he is.
As part of my “dream team”, he’d be a great Senate Majority Leader. Imagine Jim setting the Senate’s agenda!

I like when they make clear determinations like this.

Senate Majority Leader would also be a great role for him. He’d bring class back to the position.

he has already said he was going to retire in 2016. I forgot about that... you're right.

I wonder why he's opting out so early??
To: ScottinVA
The Senate is for the the taking if the GOP plays their cards right.......
......But I’m talking about a GOP who could have four of a kind in a card game but get out bluffed by a pair of deuces held by the democrats.
DeMint would make a hell of a Senate majority leader!!

To: bolobaby
Demint would be a mighty fine President. I agree. And I also understand. The next real conservative Constitutional President will be lucky to survive his sanity trying to make the changes to the unconstitutional Federal Government we have now. Any conversion from communism back to the real America would be extremely hard.
To: therightliveswithus
Good. He’ll do a better job in the senate. He needs to keep the pressure on other senators to cut spending.

Oh, yeah?! Well, that was "Pair of deuces ... Ace high" for your information.

Well, I hate to say it, but DeMint has been around long enough to know that the GOP establishment is simply not going to allow a real conservative to win the nomination.
They will pull out their bag of tricks to make sure that whoever gets the nod is one of them, or at least meets their approval.
The establishment GOP has done more whining about the Tea Party than the democrats.
By the way, Mike Pence said he will give his answer by the end of the month. I look for him to run for Indiana Governor.

As far as defining the field of candidates, there’s not a lot of clarity until Sarah Palin declares she’s running. That’s what everyone is watching for.
To: ScottinVA
I know people get all worked up by the Presidency but the Congress/Senate is the engine! Without solid Conservatives in these roles the Presidency means nothing.
