"The other day, Thune went on record dinging Jim DeMint for helping conservatives get elected. Thune also sided with Lisa Murkowski on her keeping her Senate seat. "

WTF? I guess growing up in Murdo is not all it's cracked up to be.

Tell me again who is talking about Thune for President?

Never heard of such a clamor.

I’m relieved he’s exposed himself enough to keep real conservatives from backing him, and only see any value to his candidacy if he could peel off enough Romney votes to keep the Mittster from being our nominee.

So, it’s the RINO’s who are talking about Thune becoming President.

Thune has worked his way down on my list of presidential preferences. It’s not that I wouldn’t vote for him out of necessity, but I hope that time never comes.

Neither of the author's claims is actually verified.

He's reading between the lines and imagining.

Erick supported a pro-gay, Planned Parenthood-funding "moderate" for governor of his home state over two conservatives -- he has no standing to claim to be some kind of purist and pass judgment on Thune.

Apparently, these are the facts behind the charges:

Thune defended Murky keeping her seniority on the Energy Committee and called DeMint out for expressing unhappiness over the GOP leadership to let Murkowski keep her ranking committee position.

I say keelhaul the mutinous traitor and banish him evermore from the company of Christian men! \sarc\

Gang of 14 ring a bell.

I think it is time to visit Mr Thune’s office. It is a short drive or phone call away. He does have reasons for what he does, and he is accessible. I have not faulted much, but the gang of 14 did give me a bad taste, despite the reasons. If I’m not mistaken, it had to do with the nuclear option.

Beward Red State. Those folks are the right’s version of journOlistas.

They trashed the Pledge for starters. I guess Erick getting a job at CNN changed his perspective on what is best for America.

Thune served one purpose. He knocked of little Tommy Dashole. He has done nothing since so his time has come to be replaced in the senate. Lets just say - You do the people’s business or parish.

Thanks for the info. It doesn’t take the pubbies long, once elected to national office, to get addicted to the beltway water.
