Sen. Jim DeMint (R-SC), a tea-partier extraordinaire who’s been careful not to give out any presidential endorsement in this primary, has told talk show host Mark Levin that he thinks Mitt Romney is going to pull off a win in South Carolina.

He declined to make that into an endorsement, telling the host that he would “let South Carolinians decide for themselves who they want to nominate.”

However, he noted that Perry “doesn’t seem to be getting a lot of traction” in the state despite recently going all-out there. He also suggested “other” Republicans will have done themselves no favors by having “criticized free enterprise concepts.”
