Conservative commentator Ann Coulter is saying that when it comes to midterm elections, it is better to vote for “crap-a— Republicans” than any Democrats.
“We can’t just abandon the field right now, you have to vote Republican even if it’s for crap-a— Republicans, and I would name them but I’m not going to,” Coulter said Tuesday on Fox News’s “Hannity” after host Sean Hannity said he is losing confidence in the GOP.

They ARE Dems!!!!
“Crap-a** Republican.” Is that anything like a Mugwump?
Maybe it’s time for GOP Establishment candidates to join the Democrat Party?
They can work full time attacking Democrats instead of attacking Conservatives.
Dead wrong. The message is, "We're tired of you collaborating and aiding the enemy. We're tired of you lacking the balls to stand up to the corruption. We're tired of you being part of the corruption. We want true choice, not the chance to vote for 2 different wings of the same party."
That's the message.
Ann began her Conservative fame lamenting all the Liberal media whores, and now, getting less and less public traction herself, she’s slowly become one.
No kidding...I’m afraid that amnesty’s coming in the lame duck session, thanks to the Chamber of Commerce, who will have a cushy job awaiting Speaker Boehner.
Personally, I've voted 3rd party since 2006, unless the (R) is running for local office, and I've had the chance to meet and vet them for myself.
Coulter needs to be flushed. What a tool.
Well, we all live in different states and have different circumstances.
Texas is reliably GOP and you can still find a conservative Dem every once and awhile I guess.
In my state IMHO there are no viable alternatives to voting GOP.
Since I am a conservative, if I opted to stay at home on election day, or vote third party, that effectively becomes a vote for the Democrats in the final analysis.
Like others, I have also been disappointed in Ann from time to time (more so the last year or 2). I tend to agree with you. States like yours and mine, we do the best we can do trying to get Pubbies into elected office - they may not be 100% conservative, but IMHO it’s certainly better than another go-along, whatever they want Obummer, Pelosi and Reid Marxist, Socialist, Communist. If we had a few more Pubbies in Congress I don’t believe OCare would have passed.
There’s a potential for Supreme Court Justice and other nominees coming up over Obummers last 2 years. In addition, there are 300-some bills that the Pubbies have passed in the House that are collecting dust on Dingy Harry’s desk. Are Boehner and McConnell my ideals for Congress leaders - - absolutely not. I’d much prefer to see someone like Gohmert and Cruz (or Lee or Sessions) in those positions. But even Boehner & McTurtle are better than Pelousy and Dirty Harry.
IMHO we should also consider a couple of things: the numerous Senate races the GOP has to defend in 2016 (we need to pick up some now as we may lose some then) and that there are 5-6 seats that look good for conservative-leaning and/or TEA Party endorsed candidates this year that will be replacing Senate retirees.
23 GOP Senators up for reelection in 2016:

Post #5 on same thread:
“What is not reported is the TEA Party did very well in open senate seats. Sort of an Art of War thing, while the establishment spent money and time on incumbants, Tea Party had a sneak attack on open seats. The TEA Party went after six open seats and won in 5 (the “loss” was Oklahoma but the nominee isn’t bad.) Summary below”

Got some bad news for you, Hannity isn’t a conservative, just listen to his positions on the issues.
I gotcha there. I understand. But let me ask, how's California these days? What are the chances of an (R) being elected to national office in Cali these days? Is Cali fast becoming a bastion of conservative thought and freedom?
Sometimes she comes through and says the right things. She is more moderate Republican than liberal and that drives most of us crazy
If conservatives were to get off their butts and take to the streets we could shut this whole thing down and make them stop this insanity.
Hannity’s positions are nothing more than talking points. There’s no “there”, there.
Nice tagline.
CA is terrible.
Over run by illegal immigrants and gangbangers.
Spending billions of dollars we don’t have.
Highest taxes in the nation.
Highest unemployment in the nation.
Most anti-business environments in the nations, with companies fleeing to other states every day.
We have plenty of oil and water in our state, but the libs won’t let us use it.
Public sector unions bankrupting our state, not to mention Jerry Brown’s crazy train.
Perfect example of what happens to a state when you put the Dems in charge of everything.
Voting for Republicans is mostly fantasy voting. Most of them join the Government Party as soon as they get to Washington because that is their road to permanent Wealth and they do the bidding of that Party. That party is run from the Left and its bosses wear the Democrat label. In these days the Government Party resembles most strongly a mature Communist Party. When that Party is satisfied that it has sufficient power it will revert to a more primitive iteration and then the famine and the camps.
Be selective, I will vote, and will vote Republican. In the US Senate race I will not vote for Cochran but will write in Chris McDaniel. Ann has her crap-a list and I have mine, they most likely differ, I have voted for crap-a candidates possibly longer than Ann has been out of diapers, and will probably do it again in the future but not this time. The RNC, RNSC, the Mississippi GOP and the Cochran campaign crossed a line and this needs to be challenged and stopped. If the GOP loses a Senate seat and possibly does not gain control of the Senate it isn’t my fault, it’s theirs. They had an opportunity to address this locally, they declined, they had an opportunity to address it at the RNC level, they declined and gave henry barbour two standing ovations. POAC & the RNC.
I do not nor will I ever vote for baby killers and we have a “republican” running for governor here in Illinois who advocates killing babies.
Needless to say, I suppose, that the rat candidate is the same. I will (again) look into the Libertarian candidate stance on issues important to me.
