What is it with Coulter? Her books and articles are typically very good to great. Her love affair with RINO's makes her look Elitist, stupid, or both.

Coulter has a glitch in the software. If Obama is really weak, why wouldn’t conservatives aim for a Reagan-type? Why settle for another RINO, when we know that Obama is all but unelectable if the economy continues on its present course? Something is amiss with sis. (Check the tagline on your way out.)

“Her love affair with RINO’s makes her look Elitist, stupid, or both”.

...my thoughts exactly. Could it be she sells more books when she plays to the dopey RINO lovers?

Unfortunately, there is no complex explanation of the sort that would redeem Coulter.

Fortunately though, we’re all capable of recognizing when someone we once trusted has become UNTRUSTWORTHY.

Sarah Palin is no RINO.

Read her book "Going Rogue." That book tells her campaign story where RINOs declared her as being rogue; and it also reveals how Sarah cleaned house -- RINOs included -- while serving as Governor of Alaska

There was no need for your addition to the article’s title. Ann Coulter does not have a “love affair” with RINOs. Coulter is a good conservative. She’s a strong voice for the conservative movement.

She praised Sarah Palin. Just because she thinks we can win even with Romney as the nominee doesn’t mean he’s her first choice. It means that Obama is so weak right now that EVEN Myth could take down BO.

Ann Coulter IS NOT stupid and is NOT an elitist.

Being the most powerful person in the world would be a “horrible job” for Palin, who she supposedly “loves.” LOL!

But it would be a great job for Chris Christie.

This makes no sense at all!

We KNOW from years of reading and listening to Ann that she’s very smart. She wants to win. She said in 2008 that she’d vote for Hillary to make a point that she didn’t like McCain.

Stop trying to make everything TOO simple. People are not automatically RINOs and true conservatives, etc. Ann is a true conservative, and she’s smart. She likes Sarah, but I think more than supporting one candidate she wants to win most of all.

I heart Sarah as FULLY as humanly possible because I believe she’s the Deborah of our time, but let’s not bash (even though I dislike and don’t trust Romney) other Republicans too much. Remember that we had to vote for McCain last time? I hate that we have to do something like that, but it is a very real possibility that we have to vote for someone we don’t like vs having Obama until 2016 (shudder).

“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.”

She thinks that being president would be unpleasent for the woman, and wants a man in there.

Sounds like a female crab, clawing to keep women from high office.

She was born in New York, raised in Connecticut and graduated from Cornell. As a Texan, and in my opinion, those appear to be traits of a Northeastern elitist.

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.

For all of her intelligence and wit, it appears that Ann Coulter just doesn't authentically live the life of those of us in flyover country. The contrasts between her and Sarah Palin are self-evident, IMHO.

Christie would be good, but he’d be open to the same criticism that hampered Palin — only been a governor for a short time.

Then you have to consider how many NYC media types would be digging through his trash. If they could get people to do it in Alaska against an overwelmingly popular governor, they’ll do it a couple of magnitudes worse in an evenly divided state like New Jersey. I’d still like to see it, however.

Because Ann has an “elitist Inside-the-DC-Beltway/NYC/LACA” “Lawyer” bent. Also I think that there is Jealousy of what type of normal life Sarah has and Ann know her Bio. Clock is spinning down quickly and her prospects are dwindling.

"Romney isn’t a disaster … I like him.”

I'm sorry, Ann, but you're just flat-out wrong about Mitt. He would be a disaster of monumental proportions for the country, if he were elected, due to the fact that he's basically a Democrat in Republican's clothing.

That, coupled with your advice to Sarah Palin to not run, is a double whammy against your credibility as a conservative spokeswoman.

You can keep that copy of your new book that I might have bought.

Maybe Sarah wants to serve the country, not have the most fun job.

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.

What is it with Coulter?

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.
