Now me:
I believe you are correct-the Sorting Hat has never mentioned the 
need of pure-blood in order to be sorted into Slytherin;however, it 
was mentioned that Salazar Slytherin did not wish muggle-borns to be 
allowed into Hogwarts.  Tom Riddle was a half-blood and I believe his 
resentment of muggles was already present in his personality when he 
entered Hogwarts due to his fathers (a muggle) treatment of his 
mother (a witch).  If, IMO, the Sorting Hat is "filled" as it were, 
with the likes and dislikes of the four original co-founders of 
Hogwarts and bases its decisions to some degree on these "opinions", 
IMO, hatred of muggles and muggle-borns would be something for the 
hat to look for when sorting students.  I do not believe it has ever 
been mentioned, but IMO, I would seriously doubt if you would find a 
muggle-born in Slytherin house (remember, Tom Riddle is a half-blood, 
not a muggle-born-there is a difference).  For a backup on this idea, 
remember in CoS when all the muggle-borns were being attacked not a 
single member of Slytherin house was targeted ("Enemies of the heir 
beware").  I am not saying that all members of Slytherin share this 
blind hatred of muggles and muggle-borns but it does seem to be a 
distinguishing characteristic of that particular house; nor do I 
believe that all Slytherins turn bad. IMO,ambition can be a dangerous 
thing-it must always remain considerate of others-or it can do great 
harm.
