Ann Coulter: GOP Should Hide Their Candidates So Media Can’t ‘Ridicule And Demonize’ Them

Mediaite ^ | 6/28/11 | Matt Schneider

Ann Coulter appeared on Fox Business Network’s America’s Nightly Scoreboard with some advice for Republican primary voters. Coulter told them they “need to concentrate on Governors” in the race, because even though she likes Michele Bachmann and Herman Cain a lot, she doesn’t think either have the necessary credentials or experience to go all the way. Coulter also spent some describing how environmental groups are “fanatics” and wondered “couldn’t we save a lot of money getting rid of the EPA?” Yet her harshest remarks were saved for the mainstream media, as she

Ann should go back into hiding wherever she was the last few years. You ridicule and demonize your fans, Ann, and it comes back in spades. Bub-bye.

[NoLibZone]

Very wise to stay away from ALL SOROS/DNC “media”.

Fox, Radio and the web are so strong we no longer need DNC political action committee news outlets.

[Sybeck1]

She does seem to pop up only when she has a book to hawk. Romney toadie (was Christie last month) is what she is.

Stealth Sarah mode? I wonder why no one Sarah has thought of this before?

:-) Sarah

[God luvs America]

better yet- why doesn’t the GOP and turn the tables, ridiculing and demonizing the criminal liberal media, pointing them out for what they are??

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Gee, that's exactly what Sarah has been doing, skimming under the state-run media's radar.

Ann must have learned that strategy from Sarah.

[Ulysse]

Could be a good strategy to launch lures in order to fool obama and the libtard thugs meanwhile hitting and weakening them with tough attacks.

And then start with the real candidate to finish the job and win

[paguch]

Romney will be another RINO, possibly worse than Bush. We need a President who can make up their mind. A person who constantly changes positions is indecisive.

I understand Ann Coulter's view that the media regularly trash, demonize and ridicule the Republican candidate for president. Her suggestion that the Republican candidate 'hide' is sardonic but as usual, makes the point. The MSM is out-of-control and their anti-conservative bias is reaching the tipping point. I hope that if Sarah Palin runs, having been attacked by the MSM for almost three straight years, she will strip them of their supposed power and refuse to be interviewed by the 3 broadcast networks, who will just attack her and she'll be very cautious about giving any interviews to the news magazines or liberal newspapers. Press conferences, sure. Internet, Twitter and Fox news? Sure. But keep the vaunted MSM at arm's length. A famous conservative politician like Sarah Palin doesn't need them. No one does.

They are staying alive by people believing that the only way a politician running for office has to communicate with the people is by being interviewed on ABC, CBS, NBC, etc or talking to the New York Times every few days. BS. Not today, in the year of our Lord 2012. The MSM is totally in the tank for Barack Hussein Obama, and most people (who care) know it. The MSM is openly hostile to conservative Republicans. Why should conservative Republicans keep allowing themselves to be basically attacked with 'gotcha'! questions by some smarmy leftist TV 'news' person? How does that help them? Screw the MSM. In fact, if I were Sarah palin and decided to run for the presidency, I would definitely steer clear of Chris Wallace, too.

As for Coulter's political love affair with New Jersey's rotund Republican Governor Chris Christie...she is delusional about this guy, who is basically a neo-con. Although I like Ann Coulter, I definitely part company with her on her admiration of Governor Christie and hope she gives this affair up...soon.

[5thGenTexan]

I am certainly not a Romney fan. I was just making a joke about the “hiding our candidate” comment and how Palin is punking the MSM right now.

[budwiesest]

Good point. How many newspapers are treading water? Yet, comments on many sites indicate just how prevalent leftist views are.

People are ‘voting’ with their dollars which won’t bode well for the Left. Ultimately, those closer to the truth will win in a market that demands it.

[NoLibZone]

I agree.

it doesn’t matter what the DNC Media PACs say- just stay away.

[JerseyDvl]

Ann should hide her Adam’s Apple and boyish stick figure if she wants people to believe she is female.

I have never been surprised that she is perpetually single.

[popdonnelly]

The best way to deal with the media is to refuse to talk to them. Why set yourself up to be a target? All you’re doing is increasing their ratings. All they’re doing is trying to stop your campaign.

[Joann37]

No, Ann is right.

[Deb]

Geez, crap like that is usually puked up at DU.

[Doc Savage]

Gee Ann, I guess you think Barry had all the creds to go all the way!???? He was a moron then and he’s a moron now. How the hell did HE go all the way??????????????????????? Seven years after MUSLIMS (not Jews, not Christians) killed 3,000 Americans the LEFT elected a marxist muslim communist prick who had never held a REAL job and didn’t know his ass from a hole in the ground! Gee, why can’t we all be as smart as Coulter! Why isn’t she MARRIED and having children?????????????????????

[JusPasenThru]

Ann should hide her Adam’s Apple and boyish stick figure if she wants people to believe she is female.

Feeling a bit catty today, hon?

[Jean2]

I am getting more and more disenchanted with her by the day. I am begining to see why Michael Savage can’t stand her.
