2010 and DeMint

[True Federalist (진정한 연방 주의자)]

DeMint might be able to get himself into the Vice Presidency, but unless the GOP takes even more of a lurch to a right than I think it will, I can't see him doing well in either Iowa or New Hampshire in 2012, while if he does well here in South Carolina, it will be credited to him being a favorite son.  Possibly he could do well in Nevada or Wyoming, but unless he wins one of those, he just won't have the momentum to win Florida and by then the best he could hope for is to play the 2012 version of Huckabee to whoever the 2012 McCain is.

More likely is that if McConnell doesn't seek a sixth term in 2014 then DeMint makes a play for M**ority Leader.

DeMint might not actually make it to M**nority Leader himself, but if he can purify the party enough he might have a shot if no one has the guts to oppose him.  Or he might choose to pull a DeLay and be the official No. 2 as the M**ority Whip.
