Find CHQ on FacebookCHQ Poll: Conservatives agree with DeMint's hard-line stance on debt limit
CHQ - Senator Jim DeMint is unequivocal: no raising of the debt ceiling until we have first passed a balanced budget amendment. "I couldn't support a presidential candidate" who doesn't agree on that, he adds. "We should go to the mat with Obama." Conservatives agree-overwhelmingly so.
DeMint to Romney: Mandates aren't right at the state level, either
The State Column - Senator Romney plans to visit South Carolina next week to "explore" his presidential campaign. Sen. Jim DeMint probably will not be his biggest fan during that visit. "We have learned," says DeMint, "that this idea of a mandate, of a particular type of government plan, is not the way to go, whether it is at the national level or at the state level."
Mitch Daniels is not only boring-he's a wussy "nice guy"
