We just received this email from U.S. Senator Jim DeMint. We thought we should pass it along to you

When South Carolinians elected me to the U.S. Senate in 2004, I promised to fight for the principles of freedom that made America the greatest and most prosperous country in history. But politicians in both parties continue to support more spending, more debt, higher taxes and more government takeovers. This has brought our economy to its knees and cost millions of Americans their jobs.

But the momentum is starting to shift and freedom fighters are beginning to win some of the battles against big government and the assault on our freedom. We must redouble our efforts to rebuild our economy, create new jobs and ensure more opportunities for all Americans because freedom works… if we let it. That is why today I am announcing my intention to run for reelection to the United States Senate.

– Senator Jim DeMint
