Rebel Jim DeMint sparks GOP Senate civil war

South Carolina Sen. Jim DeMint accidentally walked into a room full of lobbyists Wednesday morning and declared that “Republicans are not prepared to take over the Senate,” according to people in the room.

Some Republicans agree — and say he may be part of the reason why.

Senate Republicans are now even more embroiled in an intraparty civil war in which DeMint has been the lead rebel, and the victory by conservative Christine O’Donnell over establishment favorite Rep. Mike Castle in Delaware only deepened GOP divisions that could haunt Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell well into next year.

Behind closed doors Wednesday, Republican senators tried to assess the damage. Several senators at the lunch, including Scott Brown of Massachusetts, raised concerns that the party has sent a message that it had no room for moderates, even from left-leaning states, according to people familiar with the exchanges. And others expressed frustration that the GOP had essentially given away a pivotal seat that Castle could have won.

DeMint was pressed by several of his colleagues at the closed-door session Wednesday to pony up money from his high-spending political action committee to boost O’Donnell’s chances against Democrat Chris Coons, who already leads by double digits in a race that was a Republican lock had Castle won.

“In other words, put your money where your mouth is,” said a senior Republican official, who characterized the exchange as cordial.

1. It's too bad somebody didn't engineer an intervention

and Baker Act DeMint. It would have been an act of mercy.

Agree that he's more than a small part of the Pukes' problems.

They just flushed that Delaware Senate seat down the drain yesterday night.

Christine O'Donnell? My god.

3. Repugs are like Mal-Wart shoppers

They never see the hidden costs.

Primary wins for teabaggers are more likely to win elections for Democrats, and even if teabag candidates assume office, they will become victims of their own lack of experience, politically isolated by the extremism of their platform and unable to accomplish anything for fear of "compromising" with the more typical spate of politicians, which would make them sellouts and traitors to their nearest and dearest freakshow of a constituency.

Well, to those people they'd be selouts and trayters.
