Sen. Jim DeMint spoke with talk show radio host Rush Limbaugh this afternoon to talk about his decision to leave the Senate to become the new head of the Heritage Foundation. Outgoing Heritage president Ed Feulner was also part of the conversation

“Well, I think it’s safe to say Boehner is not forcing either of you guys out, right?” asked Limbaugh, referring to the Republican Speaker of the House.

“That’s pretty true,” Feulner said.

“It might work a little bit the other way, Rush,” added DeMint with a laugh.
