Ann is a beautiful, 40-something who has never married or raised a child - what do you make of this? Is she:

1) Like the Apostle Paul: Giving up family for a holy cause?

2) A non-practicing gay who is making the most of all the time she has as a single. (I know she dates men - but never married?)

3) A workacholic who is never going to make the most of her talent for wisdom because of an unbalanced life? (Perhaps the same could be said for Matt Drudge?)

4) Other?

Still looking for Mr. Right, but since I'm already married to someone else, she's out of luck.

(Sorry Ann, but it wasn't me who brought it up.)

4) would be Mind Your Own Business.

Add me to the Ann Coulter Fan Club. I was impressed with her from the start. I loved the ad for her book on impeachment - Clinton's Last Blond.

The conservatives have the best looking women AND the smartest people AND the only brilliant blonds. The Demon_rats have...Susan Estrogenbitch. Cackle. Cackle. Fix your hair, Susan, you look like a witch.

Perhaps Ann is the female equivalent to Billy Joel's Paul, the real estate novelist, who "never had time for a wife."

Is it that important?

some people are called to be single... there are some really nice and good people who never "feel" the need to marry... what do you make of CS Lewis and his brother? CS Lewis didn't marry until very late in life, and not until his companion was dying... and he also didn't raise children... to marry or not is such a personal thing... and i, for one--do not think someone needs to marry and raise kids to prove their "commitment..."

I'm sure that at some level she would like to do these things. But at RNC gatherings in D.C., Ann privately complains to her friends that she can't find a guy. The truth is, most men are intimidated by her looks, fame, and financial success; those who aren't intimidated by these things are intimidated by her education and overwhelming intelligence, and the very, very few who don't find those things intimidating are terrified by her mouth! Stop and think about it: as charming as she is, would most men really want to be on the receiving end of her rapid-fire logic and her ability to verbally eviscerate the opposition? Imagine the first fight.

It's tough enough to meet men who are successful in D.C. or New York but aren't arrogant. To find one with patience, kindness, a sweet spirit, political savvy, personal strength, honor, integrity, AND the confidence to cope with such a bundle of firepower as Ann Coulter is possible, but very difficult. And with her work schedule, her cause, she doesn't have a lot of time for the search. So time passes. Fortunately, with her looks she will have more years for man-shopping than most of us. I know of several high-powered Washington ladies who didn't end up getting married for the first time until they were in their mid-forties, even in their fifties. It's never too late.

Well...that's pretty rude. Just because she's single and no kids or not married means she's gay, a saint and will have an unsteady life?? There are many people like that....Rush, Drudge, etc.
I think that most people that have kids and try to work a (real)full-tiem job (with meat) are the ones that are going to have an unsteady life. You can't do both succesfully. I think that many latchkey kids are the ones in trouble (drugs and sex) and have little guidance.

I also think that some people who think that single people without kids are what you descibe in your #1, #2 or #3 are tired out, jealous and miserable.
