Republican senators lash out at Jim DeMint

Politico: “South Carolina Sen. Jim DeMint last week accused his Senate Republican colleagues of doing ‘everything’ in their power to help Alaska Sen. Lisa Murkowski’s write-in campaign against GOP nominee Joe Miller . . . A number of Republican senators told POLITICO Tuesday that DeMint was skewing the GOP Conference’s position solidly backing Miller, saying he was intensifying a rift within a party that’s trying to unite following a divisive primary season.”
