Republican US Senate candidate Jim DeMint will get White House help later this month as Vice President Dick Cheney headlines a fund-raiser in Myrtle Beach.

An invitation sent to DeMint's finance committee members Tuesday shows it will cost $2,000 to attend the July 23rd event.

Cheney was in South Carolina last year and raised about $300,000 for President Bush's 2004 re-election campaign.

DeMint has been the Fourth District representative for six years. He faces Democratic state Education Superintendent Inez Tenenbaum in November.


Keep in mind that Demint's aide was a part of the famous Florida 2000
"protest" made up of Republican congressional aides.

The Sierra Club had a protest of Bush environmental neglect

Carolina Peace Resource Center protested the phony transfer of sovereignty in Iraq

SC Democratic Party protest the outsourcing of jobs overseas.

There were more than 50 people at the protest
