DeMint Endorses the Conservative

While Senator Cornyn has aligned the Republican establishment behind the endorsement of "moderate" Florida Governor Charlie Crist for the upcoming U.S. Senate primary, Senator Jim DeMint has endorsed conservative Marco Rubio. If only DeMint were the chairman of the National Republican Senatoral Committee!!

A statement from Senator Jim DeMint:

"For months now, Republicans have been looking around, asking everyone they meet who our next leaders will be. And somehow, inexplicably, many of us have grown blind to the diamonds all around us," DeMint wrote. "There are already many young, conservative leaders ready to fight for freedom in Washington and in state capitals all around the country. But we'll never find them if we only look for well-known politicians or choose our party's direction based on the latest polls instead of timeless principles.”
