What's amazing is that, for all her controversy, I find Ann Coulter's speeches to be for the most part very dull. I have seen her in person about a dozen times. Once she followed Phyllis Schlafly, who was so graceful yet tough, and dignified--in the Reagan/Thatcher mold. Then followed Coulter, with a pedestrian, whiny, somewhat profane speech that left the entire room flat. She seems to be saying "look at me" with most of what she says in speeches. I enjoy her writing much more. In this case, she managed to make the entire CPAC conference about one thing--HER. And that does a disservice to the candidates who worked so hard to get press for their campaigns.
I disagree. She just went up 3 notches in esteem, in my eyes.
