DeMint: No regrets about pushing conservative Senate candidates (DeMint leading the way)
The Hill, Washington, DC ^ | 2010-10-29 | Michael O'Brien

Sen. Jim DeMint (R-S.C.) said he had no doubts about supporting Delaware Senate candidate Christine O'Donnell and other Republicans in key primary races this year.

DeMint, the leader of the Senate Conservatives Fund, a political action committee that pushed through conservative, Tea Party candidates through GOP primaries earlier this year, said he was proud of his efforts.

"I'm glad I did this," DeMint said Thursday evening on CNBC. "I came into the Senate with 55 Republicans, and I'm afraid that not enough of them believed in free-market capitalism and limited government."

I have supported DeMint’s conservative senate fund. Not in huge amounts, but I found it to be a good vehicle for distributing some aid to candidates that I like.

Just when I’m embarrassed to admit I’m from SC because of Lindsey Graham, DeMint makes me proud.

DeMint is a patriot and there is no reason for any regret.

DeMint is so wonderful. I hope he becomes President of the United States.

I could not stop myself from giving him more $ even as late as today. Why? I’m beginning to see an enormous tsunami on the horizon while the jackasses are all down on the beach.

I said over a year ago on FR that DeMint is presidential material. He’d get my vote.

Unlike many politicians, the more he says, the more I like him.

We need more DeMint’s. Ron Johnson will be a welcome addition to his team. So long Feingold, we aren’t going to miss you.

Hope You Change your mind Jim and help retire Mitch to the sidelines. It’s time.

We need a man like you at the helm when the Senate goes GoP, there is a lot of unfinished business to attend to. I’m sure he would appreciate lessening his load, health and all..
