Since when did Martin care about endangered Republicans? He’s just pissed that DeMint is not playing the game in Washington.
2014
I’d love to have Jim DeMint as my congressman.
I’d also love to have him as my Senator.......boy was that dumb!
I have an excuse!
Lot did not have too many friends in Sodom or Gomorrah, either. The wicked hated him.
He came out of it OK
That’s the ticket I could get behind.
Hutchison found out what being a sitting Senator meant to the people at home. Obviously the RINOs still don’t get it.
“Its a Politico divide & conquer hit piece by GOP hater Johnny Martin.”
I agree, I’m not taking the bait. Hope no one else does too.
It was him or a Democrat, that was the only choice we had. If it wasn't him, Democrats would have STILL had a 60 vote super majority even with Scott Brown's election. Pragmatism won it for him the last time. The next time, all bets are off.
Ditto that ticket.
No one can.
Last week, I sent him $25 via his web site.
The “tea party” is just rank and file Repubs for the most part. GOP politicians who find them embarrassing are themselves an embarrassment as they prove again and again.
The fact that DeMint is looking for “tea party” support shouldn’t be any surprise since the tea party is us. The surprise and newsworthy man-bites-dog would be the GOPer who expected to stay in office without rank and file Repub support. And these are precisely the guys we need to get rid of.
Similarly, the GOPers who go out of their way to attack Palin irritate me. She’s not perfect, I don’t know that she’s my pick for president if she’s running. But she has been one of road-bumps and road blocks to O’s agenda from day one along with DeMint and a small handful of others. So anyone who sees her as a problem in the party, like anyone who sees the tea partying grandmas and grandpas who make up this party as a problem, will have a hard time demanding my support for dog catcher much less president.
Either way, I'd go with that combination.
DeMint on the ticket needs no explanation.
A few years ago when Hunter was campaigning and I saw his stance on ILLEGAL immigration... BANG! He was the guy we need to uphold our Constitution.
I am not a single-voter-issue guy, but fundamental principles to our Constitution are paramount.
The time has come for all of us to realize that the GOP RINOs rule the GOP.
Why do all the Palin fanatics cover her mistakes amd look the other way while she enbraces McCain? They do it for the same reason she supports him now. McCain and his RINO buddies rule the roost. The only way a conservative can win is to take over the GOP. Most of them now will pretend to be conservative to win, then become a RINO.
Do you all wonder why Scott Brown won? This is a RINO dream. Why? Because he ain’t as far left as Obozo. This party cannot win as a conservative unless the party elites see no other way out. Until then, they can run Mitt Romney and he can win because he ain’t Obozo.
Hay all you Palin apologists? If she were your hero she would be bucking the GOP establishment. Instead she is out there sucking up to McCain. She knows as well as you do that she hasn’t a prayer to get anywhere otherwise. So lets all forget the phoniness and get down to the truth.
One more reason to like DeMint!
“Does South Carolina have a large gay population? Just asking.”
Do you always ask stupid questions? Just askin’
God bless Jim DeMint.
