miss her clear thinking very much.

lol
ftw.
I’m watching MeTV, an old M.A.S.H. episode...I think Ann would have been a great wife to Winchester at this point.
She’s full of hot air and crap. Ann Coulter has morphed into a Washington insider and North East RINO.
Agree. Santorum would be an utter disaster of a general election candidate. The man would manage to talk his way into a 10-20 point landslide defeat that would take our candidates down across the nation. Rick can't help it, he is not disciplined and, at heart, really WANTS to talk about these social issues. He will be so easily baited into yakking about condoms and porn that he will alienate nearly every moderate, indie and young(er) voter(s) who will hear our candidates out on the economy, debt, etc, but will not vote for someone who sounds like they are preaching and judging people's personal lives.
Sadly, I've come to believe that some segment of the socon voter block almost want to lose. I now suspect many want to nominate a "righteous" guy like Santorum so that when he gets crushed it will be the proof they are looking for that they've been right all along and the nation really is done for and going to hell in a handbasket.
Newt may not be the best candidate to ever come along, but he at least has a chance to really change the dynamic and some shot at winning a general election. Odds are good Romney would simply lose narrowly, but we might not get wiped out in races across then nation because of him. Santorum, on the other hand, is a ridiculous candidate only a party determined to commit political suicide would nominate. Rick would lose so badly he'd deliver Obama and the Democrats a nightmare mandate they really would use to "fundamentally transform" America.
Different of opinion is what makes a horse race exciting. We all don’t think alike. I really was never one of her fans anyway. So what she thinks means little to me...but she did have a lot of fan’s on FR that she lost...
Ann has gone to the Elite Side. Stopped paying attention to her a while ago.
NO Romney under any circumstance. Will vote Third.
Santorum 2012
Santorun reportedly will be begging Dimocrats to vote and skew the results of 7 of 10 Super Tuesday contests.
If individual voters want to crossover to screw up an open Republican primary, fine. If Move On tries to encourage voters to crossover to screw up an open Republican primary, that’s still fine.
But for a fellow Republican to join forces with Obama and the unions and pay for ads and robo calls encouraging Dimocrats to crossover and vote for him against his Republican opponent, that definitely is not fine. That is going way over the line. It’s a sleazy dirty tactic you would expect from sleazy Dimocrats.
Santorum - despite all his posturing about being a religious person - has no honor. None whatsoever. I could not and would never vote for him now.
And considering that 4 years ago, I had to lower myself and vote for McCain, that’s saying a lot.
BTW, the poll on Special Report tonight said by a margin of 87 to 13 that Santorum’s tactics were dirty. 87 to 13! And he’s going to continue doing it. Santorum has no honor.
Since Santorum has 80 plus electorals to Newt's 30 plus, its more likely Newt boosters here are secret Obama supporters, since a socialized blueblood like Willard Romney hasn't a chance in the general election in the current environment.
Or, you could save your bile for the liberals.
