Ann Coulter and her publisher need to consult a calendar and memorize the chronological order of the 12 months. If your next book is set to be released in October, you need to have the patience to wait until at least September to instigate a major controversy and draw lots of attention to yourself. To do it in March is a wee bit premature. Despite this error in timing, I'm sure the type of people who read Ann Coulter's books will yet buy many more copies of this one than they have her previous works.
If you go by her track record... this is probably not the most outragious thing she'll say all year...
I believe it was John Edwards that created the controversy. I'm sure he had no idea she had a book in publishing.

Perhaps this is just her way of warming up for the big controversy she has planned.
