Coulter has a lot of nerve attacking Mike Huckabee while posing for pictures with this RINO. Ann, you’re just not conservative enough for me!
Take a look at this blast from the 2008 past:

The results of the CPAC straw poll has just been announced, and Mitt Romney has decidedly been proven the conservatives choice. Even after he announced the suspension of his campaign, Romney managed to just edge out John McCain with 35% of the vote vs. McCains 34%.
Interestingly, the result before and after Romneys announcement were significantly different, with Romney taking a huge lead over McCain, with Huckabee and Ron Paul trailing far behind.
Overall Results:
Romney: 35%
McCain: 34%
Paul: 12%
Huckabee: 12%
Other: 1%
Undecided: 5%
Pre-Romney Announcement:
Romney: 44%
McCain: 27%
Huckabee: 12%
Paul: 10%
Other: NA
Undecided: 4%
Post-Romney Announcement:
Romney: 32%
McCain: 37%
Huckabee: 12%
Paul: 2%
Other: NA
Undecided: 6%
Another notable finding was that Huckabees votes did not seem to be affected by the announcement. Instead, most votes gained by McCain seemed to have been lost by Romney. Im thankful to see that Huckabee, despite his reception by the CPAC audience, has not polled when with them when it comes to actual support as a candidate. There may be hope for the movement yet.
I find it interesting that one RINOs vote just becomes another. If you like McCain, you'll really like Romney or visa versa. If you were fooled by McCain, you'll really be fooled by Romney or visa versa.
They fool you once, shame on them. Let's see if this next 2009 CPAC straw poll is able to fool you and some others twice.
Then, why did he raise taxes and fees $700 million dollars in four years as governor in attempt to fund universal health care? If he has such moral character, why did he lie about his father marching with Martin Luther King Jr. and try to cover up the lie when he got caught telling it? And, I guess his faith includes support for gay marriage because he didn't lift a finger to stop that on his watch.
You obviously didn`t get the joke.
“Why would he bring her up in his speech, period, but none of his other GOP rivals”
She is not a rival. She is the reason Romney won the Alaska primary last year by a landslide. You see malice where there is none.
What real men, Republicans are you talking about? You mean the Pillsbury dough boys who currently occupy the United States Congress? Have you listened to any of our leaders lately? We aren’t even talking about John Wayne. If I can’t have “John Wayne” then I will settle for “Father Knows Best”. It’s a heck of a lot better then the hen-pecked boys who’ve currently been occupying Washington since the Clinton days. I think you are being really hard nosed, you can say a lot about Romney, but one thing you can’t say is he ain’t no Pillsbury’s Boy and he ain’t no one’s bitch either. The guy has got some, if you know what I mean. He rubs some the wrong way for a reason, because like I said, he’s no ones bitch. He IS a man. Don’tcha get it?
Docile "Pillsburys Boy" RINO Mitt "Myth" Romney gleefully installs his socialistHillaryCARE=RomneyCARE
here FORCED upon Mass. taxpayers without a single one of their citizen's vote (the Romney way).
Only SW supporters sink so low as to pathetically bring up the Romney's religion, Sparks?

Romney is unelectable. He has a Mormon problem that isnt going away and most realize he is a liar and flip-flopper.
” Palin voted for Mitt”
===========================================================W
What is your source for that?
Romney was the best (of those that had any real shot of winning the primary) of a sorry bunch that ran for President.
LIAR!!! Total Bull
bttt
Recover from what?
Ever since they got rid of the more mainstream conservatives, just because they happened to say something positive about Rudy, this place has become infested with rabid folks... Sad, cause it could still be a fantastic site.
It'll be brought up time and again, and the MSM will never let go of it.
You NEVER tire of lying about Mitt... Really, what’s your deal?
Seriously- how could you misinterpret that? He made fun of himself, saying that he would have to PAY someone $11 million to write a book about himself.
Perhaps she is done at the national level. We’ll see. It will have been four years later.
I’m not sure she will be able to unite both the social and fiscal conservatives the way that Reagan and GW Bush were.
I guess that’s why Romney got what 2% or so of the total vote?
I know what it’s like to have the guy you not get the nomination. I liked Thompson myself, but he never really got started.
A conservative cannot get elected in the Northeast, only RINOs. Romney did pass mandatory health insurance in Mass. didn’t he? What is conservative about that? Fiscal conservatism is only half the equation, social conservatism is the other half and on social issues Romney is found to be wanting IMHO.
If Romney gets the nomination in ‘12, the GOP is defunct, hate to break to you but that is the reality.
