Conservative columnist Ann Coulter hearts former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin.
“She’s fabulous,” Coulter said during an interview Tuesday on CNN's "Piers Morgan Tonight."
“She is a big star. She’s virtually the biggest thing on the planet.”
But Coulter cautioned the potential presidential candidate about setting her sights on the White House.
“I wouldn’t [run for president] if I were in her shoes,” she said. “I think it would be the worst job imaginable, both running and holding the office.”
And for one already-declared candidate, Coulter has changed her tune - slightly.
She praised one GOP contender and put down another in one swipe at February's Conservative Political Action Conference, saying, “If you don’t run Chris Christie, Romney will be the nominee and we’ll lose.” But the conservative firebrand now admits to having warmer feelings for the former governor of Massachusetts, who recently announced his bid for the presidency.
“I now think the economy is such a disaster and Obama has such a glass jaw that we might even win with Romney. And Romney isn’t a disaster … I like him.”

She does not like Sarah period..
What you see depends upon where you stand. True enough for Ms. Coulter.
Horsesh*t. Ann said nothing of the sort.
Some standard. I would think on a conservative website we would seek better than that.
Excellent point! She's an 'urban' type. She considers herself to be an 'intellectual' 'Georgetown - DC' type / she's not the 'Tea Party' type.
You can take the girl out of whitebread CT, but you can’t take the whitebread CT out of the girl. Ugh!
I disagree as she supported Romney in 2008 and continues to support either Romney or Christie in 2012.
I’m sorry, but supporting Romney or Christie is supporting a RINO, and I don’t see how anyone can make an argument of supporting either of them as making someone a “Good Conservative”. Just the way I see it.
Surely, you jest. Christie wouldn't be good at all. The man doesn't have a single conservative credential to his name.
Yes, he fought the teacher's union in his state, but that's because New Jersey was dead broke, and could not afford to pay what the teacher's union wanted. It was an easy call for him.
On every other issue of importance to conservatives, Christie has sided with the left.
The fact that Ann Coulter even mentions his name as a serious potential candidate, speaks volumes about her twisted thinking process.
“I wouldn’t [run for president] if I were in her shoes. “I think it would be the worst job imaginable”
Maybe Sarah wants to serve the country, not have the most fun job.
Sarcasm ultimately works against sincerity.
When you get to the point that you’re sarcastic more often than straightforward, there’s no salvaging your own sincerity.
Coulter is untrustworthy.
LOL, didn’t you read it?
For Palin (the woman)
“””“I wouldn’t [run for president] if I were in her shoes,” she said. “I think it would be the worst job imaginable, both running and holding the office.””””
For Mitt (the man)
“””“I now think the economy is such a disaster and Obama has such a glass jaw that we might even win with Romney. And Romney isn’t a disaster … I like him.””””
What you said.
I think she is gay.
Well if she is, I hope she keeps it to herself. I really wish most would just not announce. Plus, if she was I think the liberals would have found out by now as they hate her.
There’s only one thing Ann Coulter seems to care about... promoting Ann Coulter. If she has a consistent platform, she tends to be less controversial, and gives you her real opinions. If she’s been ignored for a while, she likes to say outrageous things meant to fire up conservatives.
Ann Coulter is a very clever, female, Sean Hannity.
It is perfectly reasonable for the left’s girlie-men and manly girls to fear highly intelligent, good-looking ladies such as Palin, Coulter and Bachmann.
The left has none.
It isn't Coulter, it's you people who simply are incapable of allowing other people's opinions to diverge from yours even one iota on anything. It must always be your way or the highway. Your way, or the person is suddenly, as you put it, "elitist, stupid, or both" -- or any other epithets you can think up.
I have NEVER been a fan of Ann Coulter even though I largely agree with her conservative political views. Her shrill nastiness has always been a turnoff for me. If you were able to go back through my long history here on FR, you'd know this is true. Yet I will step up and defend her here and now.
She has a right to her opinions. You most certainly don't have to agree with any of her opinions, but to suddenly put her in the "enemy" camp because she has one or two views that don't comport perfectly with yours is what's really stupid.
If folks with your mindset keep doing this -- ruling everyone out who doesn't agree with you perfectly 1000% -- eventually the only person left who will be acceptable to you will be the one staring back in the mirror each morning.
If that's the only bar our nominee has to hurdle, then even Mitt will work, in your opinion.
I'm afraid that our nominee needs to meet a much, MUCH higher bar, in order to save this republic from ruin.

I’ve met Ann and had lunch with her and I think you are wrong.
