FYI Ping
As a huge DeMint supporter, I am starting to worry about a Romney/DeMint 2012 ticket.
I’d so like to see something like DeMint/Pence instead...
This is exactly Mitt’s proper role in the party: helping raise money for real conservatives.
Good for Mitt.
Well that is a pretty safe person to be supporting ~LOL~
Romney and DeMint have a long partnership, it was DeMint that helped to get Mitt Romney to run for President after his failed Governor term in Massachusetts, and then served in his campaign.
What’s the problem? Mitt’s raising monmey for a real conservative, instead of for himself.
Yup. Watch him try to pimp Romneycare for the whole country:
I havent seen anyone able to light up the room like Mitt Romney Calls him like Reagan LOL

Watch the video: He advocates Romneycare for the ENTIRE USA, he absolutely LAUDS Romneycare. Also claims that ALL religions share the same value system. LOL
He’ll have to elbow Mitt and Palin and Newt out of the way to find a camera.
Nope it is the quid pro quo that is disturbing...
Wow, I don’t think that I wanted to see that, I didn’t know that about him.
He thinks the terms liberal and conservative are outdated when applied to Mitt?
I think that I understand him now, this looks a lot like he is shoring up his conservative image recently, to make a better appearing veep for Romney.
What quid pro quo?
Old, old video but refreshingly nauseating.
I didn’t know that about DeMint, that he was such a grievous, dolt, suck-up.
He’s really a Republican hack.
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.
The one that DeMint will owe Slick...
I read the article and went to the link and I am stunned by this snippet from DeMint in '08:
"I have not seen people respond to a candidate with the enthusiasm with the real energy that I saw them respond to Romney," DeMint said in a telephone interview. "It was pretty much Reagan-like."
REAGAN-LIKE? LOL.
So now deMint’s a RINO? Isn’t that how the Palinoia Posse frames it?
Romney is running and he’s tying himself to to DeMint and vice versa. He got DeMint’s endorsement in ‘08 and he’s looking for it again, and looking to keep DeMint out of the presidential race.
Mitt the slick. Always plotting.
