DeMint is in hiding.
That’s funny.
All McConnell needs is 7 rinos. That’ll be easy to find.

But good for Lee.
he is..and I wonder if he is letting Lee take the reins for the future...
have no clue what is going on with him...
Or..maybe Lee is willing to take the fall in case something bad happens during that filibuster.
in any case...God Bless Lee . Hold the Line.
Why would you say that DeMint is in hiding?

How’d you reach this conclusion? I don’t think so. That he hasn’t said anything publicly since the deal was made doesn’t mean he’s in hiding.
The reality is, Lee, DeMint, Paul, and the handful of other Tea Party Conservatives can attempt to filibuster — but we all know that the Senate is full of RINO’s who just want to get this deal done and put this behind them. They’ll find enough votes — 7+ — for cloture.
It really doesn’t matter what Lee — or DeMint, Paul or any of the others say at this point. It is a fait accompli. They know it. Stand, yes. Object, yes. But understand, this battle is already lost. It was lost Friday, when Boehner stuck a knife in our back and twisted it — and took all but 22 Republicans with him.
Keep you powder dry, save the ammunition you’ve got left — and wait for a more opportune moment. They took this hill.
Good observation! Real conservatives wonder where in the world is Mr. DeMint? Where is the leadership?
The man’s silence tells me all I need to know about his tepid—at best—conservatism.
