Interesting Interview.

Want to ensure a Conservative Senate for the long-term; shoots down Presidential run question with a firm, unequivocal "no;" lavishes praises upon Lindsey Graham, talks about getting positive things done in the Senate for his next term, praises Tea Party, Judeo-Christian values.

Don’t tell Pissant. He’ll have to find another conservative to pretend to be for.

Too bad, although having him dominate the Senate for the next decade or so may be even more valuable.

I also generally look to the Governors for a candidate anyway, as it is a better fit for the executive leader.

And I can see this guy getting firmly behind Sarah when she runs for Prez.

DeMint running the Senate would be a dream come true! Seems like he’s had that idea for a little while, too!

Good for Jim!

Good grief, the guy praises Graham as a good partner. That definitely puts him one step away from the solid conservative I thought he was. Oh well, I still like him on balance. I think pissant is on record as saying he's as bad as McCain, so I await his explanation. I'm sure it will be good......

I also agree that pissant is now looking for another candidate to pretend he's for.

Someone will have to run that is a true conservative. Palin herself has dodged the question. Let’s wait and see what happens.

Good man. We badly need real conservatives in the House and Senate. He’s doing a great job, and the best thing he can do is gain seniority and more leadership opportunities.

To many politicians are in a hurry to get to the top. But one way to do that, and to serve your country well, is to stick with what you do best.

I will support whatever he decides to do.He is a good man and as far as his opinion of that fag graham that is classic senate speak.Trust me he knows what a piece of crap he is and can change the senate in spite of mcnutts and his sock puppet.

It’s an old interview. He has since changed his tune. He’s definitely contemplating it. As the poster of this thread knows.

He’s just a desperate Palin zombie who sees too many folks wanting DeMint to run, and is panicking.

You cultists keep pretending that the only reason people oppose Palin is because of the RINOs she endorses. That ain’t it, nancy.

Like I said, you're the only cultist on FR and it's demonstrable.....

And you're right, her endorsements aren't the only reason you don't support her, we all know you can't support her because you believe a woman shouldn't be in politics nor should they vote. You've said so in your own posts and we remember.

Plus we all know you go around pretending to support someone else other than your object of worship. You're a joke, you've gone totally out of your mind....and it shows........

The only thing demonstrable is your desperate need to chat with me. Kinda sad, really. I’ll let you chat to yourself from now on. Don’t have time for your feminist claptrap. Hasta luigi

I think you might be talking snarky about TitansAFC without pinging him and you're also reading DeMint's mind...LOL.

Sorry, but you're the one who's pitching a pissy er, I mean hissy fit. Your faux pick DeMint has his sights set on Majority Leader where he would be most effective, and I think he'll endorse Mitt again, who's already thrown a fund raiser for him...lol.

Very interesting interview.

Please note, that pissant called it old, although it’s 3 weeks OLD.

LOL.
