I understand your point. It is true that the polls don't paint a pretty picture in predicting our next likely President.
But to this I say, remember who it is who actually selects our leaders:
Daniel 4:17
... to the intent that the living may know that the most High ruleth in the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomsoever he will, and setteth up over it the basest of men...
So if we don't want our land ruled over by the basest of men (or women), pray.
Humble ourselves and pray.
The LORD's hand is not shortened that it cannot save, neither is HIS ear heavy that it cannot hear.
With respect to Ann Coulter. Yes, she is not a pastor. Nonetheless, I commend her that when being pushed she did not retreat into the land of 'PC' that seems to govern all our dialog.
Its 'ok' for wiccans, and satanists (amongst whom I include the islamics) to say what they please, but Christians must bite their tongues lest they be considered 'offensive'.
The preaching of the Cross is offensive.
To them that perish it is foolishness.
But to us that are saved it is the power of God.
And IF we truly love our neighbors we're going to want to share these words. So no, I'm not going to criticize Miss Coulter. Even IF it were to result in a lost election, there are more important things to be gained. I don't know her motivation, some claim she was just trying to stir the pot to drum up book sales, but from where I stand it seems that she was just unapologetically stating what she believed.
Good for her, for not being ashamed of declaring the Truth.
Mark 8:35-38 For whosoever will save his life shall lose it; but whosoever shall lose his life for my sake and the gospel's, the same shall save it. For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul? Whosoever therefore shall be ashamed of me and of my words in this adulterous and sinful generation; of him also shall the Son of man be ashamed, when he cometh in the glory of his Father with the holy angels.

you don’t have to bite your tongue but I have a different approach with atheists (or more specifically: misotheists), paganists and hateful islamists on the one hand and christians, mormons, bahais and sikhs on the other. I understand that many christians believe it is their religious duty to convert everyone else but if that was what Ann was trying to do, she has a very strange way of doing it.
