Hillary Clinton gets Ann Coulter's endorsement

[fourier jr]

I never thought I'd hear Coulter say she'd campaign for a Democrat, but then again Clinton isn't a real Democrat:

I think Coulter is just trying to get back in the news.

 

[Poop-Loops]

No, no, the conserva-Nazi's are up to something. Either that, or Hitlery is in cahoots with them. First Murdoch endorses her, now Coulter?

Conservative or not, she's a democrat and they know she will have to appeal to the liberals, and that's something they'd never stand for, unless something big was in it for them.

 

[lisab]

Hoooo boy, talk about the kiss of death.

I think this is really telling about how much those on the far-right despise McCain.

This from the woman who dreams of the day when women lose the right to vote.

I love the Newshounds motto: We watch Fox News so that you don't have to.

Q, Wolf Blitzer: What do you think about Coulter endorsing Clinton?

A, Jack Cafferty: If this country goes the way that I think will in November, I think a lot of these people will be selling pencils.

Who the hell cares about what Coulter has to say, anyway? No one with more than four neurons should care. Hell, I'd be more interested to hear Britney Spears' political opinions that Ann Coulters'.

I have often wondered how these people get attention in the first place. I guess she is effectively a political shock jock in the mold of Howard Stern.

 

[slugcountry]

stop giving this witch the attention she so obviously craves =\

 

[chemisttree]

Ann Colder absolutely hates McCain. Since he is the likely Rep candidate, she is already working Plan B which includes getting Hillary into office so that the obvious will happen and thereby allow the Reps to take back both the House and Senate in the following congressional elections. It worked in '94...

It worked in '94...

The secret plan was to give up the White House for 8 years!

It worked so well that are about to elect another Clinton.

 

[Ronnin]

One thing about having the Clintons or a Dem for that matter is that it gives the conservative talk shows plenty of material for the next 4 years at min. Rush Limbaugh wouldn't be nearly as popular without the Bill's 8 years in office. Just makes writing copy that much easier.

You asked for it!

CARLSON: You're going to be on the National Mall [in Washington, D.C.] soon performing for Pepsi and the NFL and also to support our troops. A lot of entertainers have come out against the war in Iraq. Have you?

SPEARS: Honestly, I think we should just trust our president in every decision he makes and should just support that, you know, and be faithful in what happens.

CARLSON: Do you trust this president?

SPEARS: Yes, I do.

It might work that well again!

MSNBC gave her first crack as a TV political commentator. Now they have Olberman.

Supporters drawn to Clinton by Coulter fan < supporters drawn away due to Coulter hate

Clearly, Coulter is a secret Obama agent

Olberman is a great news commentator. He's both intelligent and hilarious. Olberman for Coulter- MSNBC got a deal on that trade!

More likely she was run off with a cattle prod.

I don't pay much attention to Ann Coulter, but I agree with you about Clinton to a certain degree (which is a positive for her).

I tend to think of her being more of a Western Democrat than a West/East Coast Democrat in spite of being a New York Senator and in spite of her health care plan. Western Democrats are still a significant portion of the party even if a minority. She has more in common with Nelson (NE), Salazar (CO), Napolitano (AZ), and Sebelius (KS) than she has with Kennedy and Kerrey. Yet, Obama won the endorsement of Nelson, Napolitano, and Sebelius. (It will be interesting to see if the Salazar brothers come out with an endorsement for one or the other, since they'll have a big pull on Colorado hispanics).

It could be that she thinks Obama has the stronger chance of winning against a Republican, so is trying to support the "weaker" candidate to lessen the competition.

But, generally, I agree with Chroot's comment...who the heck cares who Coulter supports or what she thinks?

She probably thinks saying she would support Clinton over McCain improves Romney's chances of beating McCain. Thinking any Democrats listen to her would be delusional even for Ann Coulter.
