He will be greatly missed.
To: Perdogg
Maybe he’s making inroads for a run at the White House in ‘16.
I hope so.

He didn’t want to run again in 2010. The only reason he did was to hold that seat for Coservatives and hope that they would get a majority in the Senate and the House.
He and his wife need the break from all the crap that goes with politics and they’ve sure earned it.

Does he feel that he can be more of a factor at Heritage, or is he just tired of battling in the Senate?

I can understand Senator DeMint's abject frustration with this body of anal orificies. But we need more people like him at the levers of power, not less.

Any watercooler guesses as to his appointed replacement?

He may be more effective at Heritage than he could be in the Senate. And it opens up a slot for a new young senator. How about Trey Gowdy?

Not a good sign at all.
DeMint is far smarter than the average bear. Obviously he has assessed the lay of the land and determined that if he stays in the Senate he is going to be awash in Leftist chuckleheads and GOP quislings for the rest of his natural life.

McConnel looks like a turtle in that picture.

Either way I just hope the republicans have their act together come 2014 because the SEIU is going to put boots on the ground in Carolina to capture those seats.
