On a Sunday morning appearance on Fox & Friends, conservative columnist Ann Coulter explained why Romney fell short in the South Carolina GOP presidential primary, blaming the priorities of South Carolina voters for Gingrichs success.
Apparently, South Carolinians would rather have the emotional satisfaction of a snotty remark toward the president than to beat Obama in the fall, Coulter, the author of Demonic: How the Liberal Mob Is Endangering America, said. We saw it in the debates when Gingrich would say things that didnt really make sense. That is what you usually associate with Democrats, which I described in my last book, Demonic, how mobs behave.
Some of what Gingrich has said might appear to make sense, she said, but should be analyzed more closely.
Something that sounds like it makes sense like, Mitt Romney doesnt have influence over his super PAC that makes you wonder if hell have influence as president, she continued. How many times does Mitt Romney have to say it is illegal for a candidate to have influence on the super PAC. It is not, interestingly, though, for a president to have influence. So it makes no sense if you think about it for all of three seconds, but it sounds like it makes sense. It is just like what you get from liberals most of the time and the cheers and yahoos, and that is what we kept getting from this audience.
Coulter, who has been a Romney supporter since New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie said he would not be seeking the Republican nomination, was asked if Romney should change his strategy now that he suffered a defeat in South Carolina, and perhaps go on the offensive with fire in the belly.

So you’re a troll? Nice of you just to come out and say it.
Coulter has definitely lost the Freepers.
“I am pretty sure well get everyone who voted for McCain since no one voted for McCain because we liked McCain it was to stop Obama. We have those voters. Now you have to get people who voted for Obama and having a candidate who goes out and calls Obama a Kenyan colonialist, that is not what you need.”
Does anyone have any proof that Newt called the president a “Kenyan Colonialist”. This is important. Anyone? I’ve never heard Newt say that, but now Ann is playing out of the left play book with the Straw Man, tagging Newt as a racist.
Did anyone hear him say this?
You’re calling a poster who has been here for eight years a troll.
You’ve been here for four days.
Are you a retread?
“Coulter: With Newt Gingrich you throw out the baby and keep the bath water”
Grunthor: With Romney you slaughter the baby in the womb on the taxpayers dime.

I agree. I feel the same way now of Peggy Noonan after she trashed Sarah Palin. SHe may still write a column or two that are good, but it’s not the same.
She and Coulter come across as shrill, petty and pompous.
She makes some good points about Newt and believe me I am no Romney supporter.
I wish more than anything that PAUL RYAN gets drafted for the nomination. All of Newts verbal abilities and conservative to boot.
We need better than what we have on the slate.
Yawn....I’m going to bed... I’ve heard and read enough for one day.
Newt has changed dramatically. Here are some FR links about his conversion.

volman, do you wish to "revise and extend" your remarks?
Or at least bring them into the current universe?
Cheers!
Thanks, Pan_Yans Wife!
I stand by my remarks. Sorry for being an independent thinker, lemming.
Wish she’d get back to some 0 a** kicking.
You’re welcome. :)
Excuse me, what is the "You Freepers" comment about? Are you not one? You are here DUmmy.
I'm sorry for your thought processes too, such as predicting that Ron Paul would not run for President in this campaign, or that Romney would choose Jindal as his running mate.
Cheers!
What did Mitt promise her?
