Anyone Who Buys Into This Brand of "Conservative"
...Coulter compared a potential alliance between disillusioned conservative Republicans and Sen. Hillary Clinton to the alliance between Winston Churchill and Joseph Stalin during World War II, which was formed to defeat Hitler."I'm not comparing McCain to Hitler," she added. "Hitler had a coherent tax policy."
The remark received wild applause from the audience of about 500 conservative activists. Many in the crowd seemed hostile to the idea of a McCain presidency and cheered Coulter's attacks on the Arizona senator.
...really has no business voting anyway.
Coulter is the mayor of Crazy Town.

Does Godwin's Law apply to columnists?
If not, she should STFU.....her MDS is becoming terminal.

Coulter is nothing more than a right-wing James Carville, only more incisive and funny. She's at her best when she's tweaking the noses of the lefty fringe.
She's not, however, one that I would listen to seriously for politics.

I've been quietly noting the growing lunacy of the "conservatives" the past couple years. Obsession with the non-issue of illegal immigration was their rallying point, and they have grown to be completely intolerant of anything but the most strict orthodoxy of what they determine is proper conservatism.
In their minds to be a "conservative" you must be a baptist or other protestant equivalent, you must insist that the Constitution established a state religion that only barely tolerates other beliefs, and you must brand any dissenter as an extreme liberal.
The Reagan coalition is dead. The "moral majority" has broken away from the coalition and is pretending that they are the only true believers.
These people are lost. They won't be coming back. To defeat the socialists and communists in the democrat party will take a new coalition. I don't know how we'll do that.

"I don't know how we'll do that."
Staying sane and civilized is a great start. Your average person appreciates that.
I don't ever want to hear another one of these arch-conservatives talking about the lunatic left or the politics of personal destruction. They've claimed that territory for their own.

Coulter is funny and amusing when she's mocking the liberals, but she's not one I'd listen to for serious political advice.

Fair's fair - if we twit the Dems for sucking up to their lunatic fringe, we'd better distance ourselves from our own. Ms. Coulter definitely qualifies. Ever since Jonah Goldberg fired her from NRO something snapped inside her.

Flogging another book, is she?
