It was at The Battle of Nations that the tide in Europe at long last turned inexorably against Napoleon, but it was at that first battle that the Prussians turned on him and deserted the Grande Armee.

It was the first great defeat after his withdrawl from Russia that broke him (aside from Wellington’s victories in the Peninsula, that is).

Waterloo would come two years later.

as Minority Leader, I can’t locate it and I think it would make good reading. Thanks.

This is no time to be magnanimous and “senatorial”. Yes, I am talking to you, Graham and McCain. Now is the time to put our boot on their necks, and push downward.

Start calling (loudly) for investigation of a whole bunch of those ‘czars’. Get after Dodd, Rangel, and other known crooks who still hold high positions. Publicly call for them to (at least) surrender their committee chairmanships. Get it into the headlines.

And pretty much plan to no-bill every judicial nominee coming. I assume they’ll all be like Sotomayor and Hamilton, or worse. Just shut it down.

I would never donate to the NRSC but I need to consider the Senate Conservatives Fund. I like them. They fight.

When we contributed time and money to his election here in his home town, we knew he would be one of the very few in Washington totally true to his convictions.

However, his skill, courage and toughness in holding back the Obama tide and pushing forward conservatism in spite of the super majority and in spite of the paralyzed and compromised leadership in his own party is remarkable, even to his strongest supporters. He’s carrying all the water up there right now as far as I can tell.

I remember the Waterloo remark and it was spot on. No one was calling Obama out like that back then. Wonderful news about Southers.

Thanks for getting the word out about what’s going on up there.

I met one of Jim DeMint’s staffers after the 912 rally. He was very nice and thanked us for coming to the rally. He and his staff have shown a lot of support for grassroots efforts. I like that, and the Senate Conservative Fund will be on of the places I contribute (over the NRSC). I get suggestions from Red State on places to contribute. I will continue to do so as long as I am able.

Should he decide to run in 2012, he would automatically be one of my favorites.

His next win should be as Minority Leader, that is until November 2010, when that might well become Majority leader

Last night showed every state, every district is in play as long as we have the RIGHT candidates and they actually fight to win instead of playing not to lose.

I was all aglow and excited to get online to gloat more about Mass, and then saw this little extra jewel about Southers resigning buried under the headlines.

I guess rather than bury it on a Friday night they decided this would get even less coverage today?

It’s like Christmas in January.

DeMint is a juggernaut right now, the man can do no wrong.

Senate Majority Leader DeMint sure has a nice ring to it…

For every failure that the left endures, Americans continue to win!

I think they see him as a potential majority or minority leader in the future and his potential rivals want to bring him down a peg. I have begun to admire his tactical skills and principled stand he has been taking w/o waiting for the polls to find out which way the wind is blowing.

…to Field Marshall

The Scott Brown thought is interesting, but I’m going to go with Morrissey on that one.

and DeMint’s opposition was sound, but must we continue to say that Southers said anything to the effect of, “‘Christian identity’ groups like the KKK and pro-lifers were a bigger national security threat than Islamic terrorists,” or that he issued a “plea for the U.S. to ditch Israel as an ally”? It diminishes our credibility to make such claims when the evidence just isn’t there. At this point, I have to assume that Erick is, in good faith, forwarding a claim from someone that he trusts without having fully verified it.

Sen DeMint epitimizes what a conservative senator should be.

What will it take for the GOP to understand that he sets the standard for what we want….NOT THE HUFFINGTON RINOs???

Sen DeMint should be proud of this, good riddance to Southers.

NRSC and RNC are big losers in the Brown election. I will give to candidates, and maybe Senate Conservatives Fund because of Senator DeMint and his help with Scott Brown.

Jim DeMint needs to be elected as the next Republican Leader of the Senate, if Republicans gain 10 more Senate seats after November.

Jim DeMint all the way.

to be the Senator who gives the rebuttal to the Idiots State of the Unions!

One of very few with the stones to tell the truth and get it out there.

Do we need a leadership hosing out?

Yes, I agree.

1.) Cass Sunstein

2.) Mark Lloyd

3.) John Holdren

And if Jim is Wellington, then through her salvo of “death panels”, I think Sarah is cavalry General Buford at Gettysburg.

Buford recognized if he did not take a stand to slow down Heath’s boys west of Gettysburg, the rebs could have got the high ground east of town and it would have Fredericksburg all over again.

Enjoy! Then it is off to storm the ramparts with Rubio and crush Crist.

. . . good man that he is. . .

Quote from Gandolf re Bilbo:

“May the hair on his toes never fall out!”

All together now:

For he’s a jolly good fellow;
For he’s a jolly good fellow’
For he’s a jolly good felllllllllooooooooowww:
Which nobody can deny!

God bless you, Sir, for your faithful service to your country!

the establishment GOP was in on helping Brown early on, sending operatives and cash.
I believe I read this in “Politico” (father, forgive me…)
However, the GOP strategy apparently was to NOT let that out, as it would probably be the kiss of death for Mass voters to see Brown’s run as “nationalized” by the GOP. So apparently they dissuaded others from announcing their early involvement.
If this is so, I would like to see it confirmed by RedState. I may have concerns with Mr. Steele, but wish to give credit where… IF…. credit is due.

Thanks, Jim, for all the work you’ve been doing on behalf of the American people and the risks you’ve taken to restore Conservative values to mainstream America. I, along with millions of others, recognize the heat you’ve been taking from our own party (which is why I no longer donate to the party, but instead to the individual) and for that “inconvenience” we appreciate you alll the more.

By the way: The next to go is Chuck Schumer. Hopefully the letter to my local newspaper tomorrow will bring out someone from the shadows to run against this contemptible elitist. There will never be a time when he is more vulnerable. If Massachusetts can do it then, by God, so can New Yorkers.

Thanks again, Jim. We know you’re “the real deal.”

Jim DeMint –
Is Jim the only man in Congress that has any balls? He is the only one to stand up to Obumer. Are all the others afraid to speak their minds and question the actions of our great leader? What did we elect to keep America the strongest nation in the world — apparently some pussy-willows that are hell-bent to see America fall into the cess-pool.
Jim calls a spade-a- spade and makes no bones about it. He sees the person for what he really stands for and is not afraid to speak-up. With out Jim to fight for us, We are in a would of hurt. Jim, you have our many thanks.
