Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney (R) will appear as the special guest at a fundraiser next week to benefit South Carolina Sen. Jim DeMint's 2010 re-election, according to a copy of the invitation obtained by the Fix.

At least he didn’t say Mitt was a leader. He said he was a ‘manager’, basically a good Mommy Dearest/Clean up Artist for Democrat policies. What I call Stockholm Republican.

It is worse than that, he was on Mitt's exploratory committee, that means DeMint is part of the reason that Romney managed to create such a dismal 2008 field by running off potential conservatives.

We haven't even gotten to DeMint being Lindsey Graham's co-chair for Graham's reelection.

Apparently Demint is indeed now a RINO, according to their framework. This is rich.

I guess this is PROOF POSITIVE: DeMint is a RINO! < \tinfoil>

[pissant]

DeMint’s a RINO, Phyllis Schlafly’s a RINO, Jesse Kelly’s a RINO, DUncan Hunter’s a RINO. Everyone is a RINO except the Princess Precious.

[Quid pro quo?]The one that DeMint will owe Slick...

Fund raising for a candidate equates to a likely preference, but hardly a quid pro quo for primary support.

Yeah. I’m conservative. I want 80 percent of the federal government....gone. Period. With the exception of even more.

To me DeMint is a go slow, slow down...the INCREASE of the Fedgov. So, he isn’t conservative, because by definition, the growth of government comes as with the destruction of what little of private life, liberty and property that still exists. No matter how little, non conserving is not conservative.

[Uncle Ivan]

Naw, everyone's a RINO, even the princess. Even you, me, and everyone else here.
