South Carolina Primary (email from Senator Jim DeMint 1/16/2012)
Team DeMint Website; My email ^ | January 16, 2012 | Jim DeMint

Posted on 01/16/2012 6:02:16 AM PST by snippy_about_it

Fellow Patriots:

The presidential primary in South Carolina has intensified and my name is being tossed around a lot.

I have complimented several of our candidates when they spoke out on conservative issues, but the media has suggested that I favor one over the others. I'm writing today to make sure you know exactly where I stand.

I do not have a favorite in this race and I will not endorse a candidate.

I've gotten to know each of the candidates over the past year and they are all far superior to Obama. My view reflects what I've heard from Republican voters across South Carolina who remain divided in this race.

For those of you in South Carolina, I encourage you to watch the Fox News debate tonight and vote this Saturday for the candidate you believe will fight the hardest to stop the massive spending, bailouts, and debt that are bankrupting our country. We need a president with the courage to tell Americans that our government must do less, not more.

The 2012 elections could be our last chance to restore America's greatness so we must defeat President Obama and elect more conservative leaders to the House and Senate.

Please continue to pray for our country and the year ahead. Our future depends on it.

For Freedom,

Jim DeMint United States Senator

Good. At least he is not endorsing Romney this time. I wish the other so called “conservatives” like Nicky Haley would take heed. We will not forget.

What was it - four days ago, the buzz was that DeMint was ready to endorse Romney and Freepers were, once again, out on the ledge.

As Jim says - listen to the debate - Newt is just hitting his stride - just in time.

Mitt is going down - and going down hard!

I agree. DeMint has been concentrating on his PAC supporting conservatives for Senate seats, an admirable goal and needed. I support his “Team DeMint”.

Haley got her bag of silver from the socialist candidate, Romney. Don’t worry she will cuddle up to conservatives again when its election time.

“I’ve gotten to know each of the candidates over the past year and they are all far superior to Obama.”

I think we all need to remember this. We have far too much infighting. None of the candidates are perfect, but all are far superior to Obama!

I really really want to believe you-—but I’m listening to Laura Ingraham right now and she is hyping some poll which has Romney way out in front.

I thought Gingrich had tied it up?

Anybody know the source of the info DeMint was endorsing Romney? Was it the Romney PAC? If so, Romney’s support drop is getting a little scary. That’s Alynski stuff!

Haley received a very large donation from Romney’s PAC.

Romney’s PAC, Restore Our Future, has donated over $36k to Haley.

Nikki Haley is dead to me. I sent her campaign money last time. Next time I’ll tell her to pound sand and tell her to ask for money from her boy, rumnuts.
I also sent her an email expressing my displeasure with her stupid endorsement.

Laura Ingraham (?) has been singing the praises of Mitt along with all of the elitists of DC and elsewhere including Fox News.

Why trust any poll she expounds upon, she would never give a "poll standing" which did not have Romney in the lead and walking away with the election.

I am so sick of all of this Romney forcing, but fear it will extend to being the elitists choice AGAIN, and not the public who are being fooled by stupid polls instead of thinking for themselves.

Reuters came out with a online poll consisting of Democrats and Republicans that showed Romney up by 21. Realclearpolitics doesn’t even count this poll because it is so laughable. They will do anything to push Romney down our throats. The sad thing is “they” are the Dems, the media, and the GOP leadership.

Sorry, got the name of the PAC wrong.

“His “Free and Strong America” political action committee donated $36,000 to Haley’s campaign in 2010.”
