TRENDING: Ann Coulter surveys GOP 2012 field (Coulter's Love Affair With RINO's)
CNN ^ | 06/07/2011 | CNN Political Unit

Posted on 06/08/2011 9:28:04 AM PDT by Rational Thought

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.”

Sometimes I wonder about Annie.....I’ve always liked her but sometime I think she gets it all wrong. We don’t need a spaghetti-spined candidate that will grovel, shuffle and NOT let BO have it about the direction this country has taken since Soros was elected President! Michelle, Sarah and perhaps Santorum WILL let BO and President Soros have it with both barrels. :)

I think she is gay.

Ann has been engaged three times - to men.

She's brilliant and hilarious.

Yeah, I always wind up rolling on the floor laughing, whenever I hear leading conservative pundits publicly supporting RINOs like Mitt and Christie.

She really liked Romney in 2007, when several real Conservatives were still in the race (specifically, Fred Thompson, whom she publicly attacked as not a real Conservative). I remember that vividly.

In her speech at CPAC, she strongly supported Christie, you know, the one who just a couple of days ago talked of the evils of “Man Made Global Warming”.

I'm not so sure Romney is her last choice. While she's still promoting Christie, if she's for real, why isn't she promoting the real deal in Palin, or any of the other Conservatives on the sidelines? Just doesn't make sense.

[ I would take my chances with something with a low chance of winning versus something with no chance of winning. ]

So “rational thought” is something you ascribe to gain... good quest..
Advice: First you need some principles..

I havn’t voted for a republican since Reagan I respected.. BUT I voted for them..
Don’t vote for the republican... is two votes for the
democrat..

1) the missing vote for the republican.. makes him weaker..
2) a corresponding democrat vote becomes twice as powerful/meaningful..

Note: The system is hard wired for two parties.. And the TpCaucus is not a party anyway.. Partys are becoming more and more OBSOLETE.. The Tpcaucus is the way to go.. it is the PRIMARYS that count more than the election..

“It’s also interesting that as she approaches the age of 50, she’s never married. I am NOT implying anything untoward about her by that latter statement aside from noting that most Christian Conservative women from the heartland of America have married and had children by that age.”

Most Christian, Conservative women aren’t running around the country 40 weeks a year while giving lectures, writing a weekly column and writing or promoting a book. And that doesn’t include the shows she appears on.

If she were married to you, what would you say about this? It would be next to impossible to have a relationship with this woman, aside from the “when will you be in San Antonio again, babe?”

As it turns out, Thompson isn’t a real conservative. He just announced his support for the National Popular Vote movement and said that the Electoral College is risky.

Calling Romney “not a disaster” is hardly a ringing endorsement. It certainly isn’t “pushing” a RINO.

Palin hasn’t declared a candidacy. Neither has Bachman. The only conservative in the race who meets our strict standards is Cain. I don’t know if Cain can beat Obama. I like him a lot, but he’s never held public office. If I were Ann, I too would reserve my endorsement at this time.

I understand where you’re coming from, but still can not reconcile how a tried and true alleged conservative like Coulter would even think of endorsing Christie or Romney.

“This makes no sense at all!”

Contingent upon who becomes the Republican nominee will determine if a Third party candidate emerges, and that candidate would (IMO) be from the Tea Party.

There's an old saying, “Presidents change, the Bureaucracy doesn't. Such is the reason for the Two Party system.

I really don't think it will come to a Third Party this time as I'm somewhat confident we will have a Conservative nominee. But, the conditions are more favorable than ever before for a Third Party candidate, if the Establishment acquires the nomination. The economy is that bad and people are truly angry. I don't see the threat of “our guy is bad, but not as bad as the other guy”, working this time.

Wouldn’t the most powerful person on the planet beat the doors off of Ohbummer and bring a tidal wave of congressmen? Not getting her analysis.

Note to Ann, Mitt Rino’s people won’t buy your books.

Pray for America

That’s not true. When she spoke at GOP Proud she, told them she was against homosexual marriage and against special rights. She did nothing to appease the homosexual crowd. So much so several attendees were mad she was invited to speak.

Cornell undergrad, and she pooh-poohs people who go to Cornell’s ag school. She’s an ivy league snob like so many others in the beltway.

Why are you pinging me. I just copied and pasted someone else’s comment and I answered what he said. Go back to the source.

First of all, “win life’s lottery” is a very common turn of phrase; a colloquialism that means successful.

Secondly, congratulations on your religion. Be sure to continue patting yourself on your back over it in direct contradiction to Christ’s teachings of humility and kindness. Shrug.

As for free will, sure, we have it, after all the following is chosen for us:

Our parents, family and their socioeconomic status
Our genetic inheritance
Whether or not we are born healthy and free of birth defects
The country, culture, society and religion into which we’re born
The era into which we’re born
Whether or not we have siblings

Not really.

It’s not about who “drops” which person. It’s about which person drops the basic principles. Christie and Romney have abandoned conservative principles, possibly because they have never believed them.

Coulter supports Rinos. In supporting Romney, she supports abortion and universal healthcare. In Christie, gun control and appeasement of jihadists.

Coulter has abandoned conservative principles. How is this trustworthy?
