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.

The right VP pick could lessen many of those concerns.
Like some have suggested, myself included, a Col West.
West might be a good compliment since Newt was a Army brat.
Ann is giving up writing books and will instead be touring with the Dixie Chics.
There have been so many ups and downs and surprises in this primary race that I wouldn’t count on it being decided before PA.
Does FOX have a random or for-cause drug testing program for its employees and contributors. If so, I suggest they check Dear Ann for amphetamine use. Can tell if it’s Adderall or Adipex, but it’s something.
Then it seems apparent in the case that either of them wins, We had better be prepared to drag their ass to victory.
We will have to form a massive ground game, and war chest to combat Obama.
Perhaps an internet campaign with key organizational headers.
WOW!!! That is an awesome graphic!
Did you see her on O’Reilly tonight? I had to turn it off.
Even O’Reilly was pissed.
Us Freepers?
What are you, and what have you been doing here, since 2003, that we should know about?
Yes I saw her on O’Reilly the other night and wasn’t impressed with her at all.
After her support of Christie, then her flip-flop on Romney, she will never, ever be respected by those of us on the right.
She sold us out, and for what?
An invitation to all of the right cocktail parties.
She reminds me of David Brock.
