something has happened to Coulter. I don't have firsthand knowledge that she was kidnapped by RINO Team Six and taken to an offshore medical facility where she was forced to undergo a gruesome surgical procedure, but many of her recent columns suggest that something of the sort must have occurred. What else could explain her endorsement of Mitt Romney? Once immutable where her core convictions were concerned, she has executed a vertigo-inducing volte-face in order to promote a brazen opportunist whose positions on the big issues were the opposite of hers before he began running for President. She relentlessly trashes Republican "moderates" like McCain, yet now supports a candidate who makes the Arizona Senator look like Barry Goldwater by comparison.
It first became apparent that something awful had happened to Coulter last November, when she wrote a column asking "If Not Romney, Who? If Not Now, When?" In this surreal effusion, she claimed that the media were "pushing Newt Gingrich" and other alternatives to Romney "because they are terrified of running against him." This, as many pointed out at the time, was preposterous. The only thing that terrifies the media about Romney is that he might not get the GOP nomination. This is the man they want to run against. Unlike Coulter, the media and the Obama reelection team know that Romney can be easily portrayed as a Wall Street parasite whose only memorable "accomplishment" as the Governor of Massachusetts was the enactment of a health "reform" law that renders him unable to credibly denounce ObamaCare.

Whoever got her also got ahold of Nikki Haley and John Bolton as well.
Ann does appear to have an adam’s apple. Now an article wondering about “her castration”.
Hmmmmm... could it be Ann’s given name is something like Arnold?
It’s why I don’t trust ANY of them. They say what we want to hear and then flip on us and expect us to line up and come along. They have tried to whip us into a frenzy so we will accept whoever they shove down our throats.
No more.
As a parent, I learned that when a teenager is talking nonsense, it usually means they are basing their comments on having skin jn a game they don’t want you to know about. At its simplest, it means they are lying. But they may be lying for a reason unknown to you.
I think the same is going on with Coulter, et-al. I think they know or believe things we are not privy to, and end up taking a position that makes no sense to us.
Frankly, since they are obviously in a position to have information sources we don’t have, it’s a little scary.
She never was a conservative... she was and is a republican.... the same for most people who claim to be conservative, they are party first, everything else second ( there are plenty of examples to be found here on FR )...
Whoever it was, they forgot to remove the Adam's apple as well.
You may be spot on with your suggestion. Far too many whom we’ve considered solid conservatives have shown a tendency toward moderation lately. I too think something’s going on. And I don’t like it.
Little Annie Coultergeist! She is looking to the most pro gay agenda GOP nominee to validate Matt Drudge and all of her pals at GOProud.
This is why a Romney presidency will be a disaster for the Tea Party movement.
To support Romney, Tea Partiers have to abandon their principles and twist conservative logic into pretzels. It leaves everyone in the movement open to being called hypocrites. “You were against Obamacare, but are OK with Romneycare? You’re nothing but hypocrites that put party ahead of principle.”
If Tea Partiers stick to their principles (which would mean opposing Romney), they will be called petty purists that are only helping get Obama reelected.
Just like they did with forcing Reagan to select GHW Bush as his VP, they just showed her the brush they were going to tar her with and she rolled over.
Maybe she is auditioning for Rachel Maddow’s job or a spot as guest speaker on Al Sharptongues show.
She is becoming the Lady GaGa of the conservative movement.
The second statement is questionable, but the first is true, and ought to be addressed by the people who are attacking Ann.
Ann Coulter argues in a particular way. She always paints herself as a true conservative and those she disagrees with as godless, degenerate liberals and subjects them to ridicule.
She's not going to change that way of thinking and arguing, even if she's wrong or the people who disagree with her are more conservative.
I guess there's a kind of poetic justice in the way Ann's been dropped so quickly by fans and in the way she's being attacked by people who once worshiped her -- and being attacked in the same way that she used to attack her own targets.
But if you loved her or supported her in the past, how can all the good feeling vanish so quickly with one disagreement?
Eww.. my distaste for her is up there with glen beck...
I think her support of GoProud explains it all.
IMHO, somebody made a large purchase of Coulter’s book. We’re talking by the truckload.
Considering how much money Romney has passed out in recent years to buy politicians (including things like paying of Pawlenty’s campaign debt), and how much he spent in Florida, the cost of buying a ton of books to ensure a “conservative” author is on his side is certainly a reasonable suspicion.
