Alternate headline: Hell Freezes! Ann Coulter Makes Sense.
I couldn’t resist Ms. Coulter’s latest column on Townhall, mainly because it actually makes the perfect case for Romney, especially when she mentions the suburban women’s vote.
However, it’s her take down of Newt that is so delicious.
So now, apparently, we have to go through the cycle of the media pushing Newt Gingrich. This is going to be fantastic.
In addition to having an affair in the middle of Clinton’s impeachment; apologizing to Jesse Jackson on behalf of J.C. Watts — one of two black Republicans then in Congress –- for having criticized “poverty pimps,” and then inviting Jackson to a State of the Union address; cutting a global warming commercial with Nancy Pelosi; supporting George Soros’ candidate Dede Scozzafava in a congressional special election; appearing in public with the Rev. Al Sharpton to promote nonspecific education reform; and calling Paul Ryan’s plan to save Social Security “right-wing social engineering,” we found out this week that Gingrich was a recipient of Freddie Mac political money.
This scathing indictment comes the same day Gingrich tops Romney in the latest Rasmussen poll 32% to 19%, with Cain coming in at 13%. I guess Dennis Miller’s endorsement of Herman didn’t change any minds. Meanwhile, Rick Perry has crashed and burned.
Coulter continues:
The mainstream media keep pushing alternatives to Mitt Romney not only because they are terrified of running against him, but also because they want to keep Republicans fighting, allowing Democrats to get a four-month jump on us.
Meanwhile, everyone knows the nominee is going to be Romney.
That’s not so bad if you think the most important issues in this election are defeating Obama and repealing Obamacare.
There may be better ways to stop Obamacare than Romney, but, unfortunately, they’re not available right now. (And, by the way, where were you conservative purists when Republicans were nominating Waterboarding-Is-Torture-Jerry-Falwell-Is-an-Agent-of-Intolerance-My-Good-Friend-Teddy-Kennedy-Amnesty-for-Illegals John McCain-Feingold for president?)
Among Romney’s positives is the fact that he has a demonstrated ability to trick liberals into voting for him. He was elected governor of Massachusetts — one of the most liberal states in the union — by appealing to Democrats, independents and suburban women.
All Mitt Romney has to do now is convince the 99% he’s got better answers than Pres. Obama on the economy. Considering the wrong track numbers Obama’s dealing with today it’s my belief that even with Romney’s negatives, the American people will give him a chance.
In fact, against Pres. Obama there really isn’t a better Republican nominee to take him on. These guys are bookends of Democratic and Republicanism, representing the two establishment, corporate and Wall Street fueled political parties, each with their own flips and flops and marketing that doesn’t match the man.
Looking at both candidates the objective question remains Is this the best we’ve got?
When even Coulter figures out Romney is the logical choice … Actually, I don’t know how to finish that.
HA!
Yes, this is the best we’ve got, god help us. Dennis Miller endorsing Cain makes perfect sense since they both make your skin crawl. The last time I saw Miller, I believe it was on Leno, I was forced to change the channel. Like many right winger’s, he has this permanent smirk stuck to his face, every joke is some crude, mean sprirted back hand slap at anyone who isn’t conservative. I must admit, Coulter endorsing Romney is rather odd, unless it was an act of desperation. An article in the New Yorker a few month’s ago ( Romney’s Dilemma ) clearly showed that the Mass. health care plan was his creation. He was in on the meetings and planning from the very beginning and he saw no problem with the mandate. To him it fit nicely with conservative ideas about self reliance and responsibility. He cannot hide behind people in his former administration; as they say, he was there at the creation.
Believe me, once the general election begins, Mitt Romney will talk loudly about repealing Obamacare.
HOWEVER, he will also talk about replacing it with his ideas for health care, because he knows we have to do continue “fixing” health care
The rest depends on what happens next June through SCOTUS.
“Yes, this is the best we’ve got, god help us. Yes, this is the best we’ve got, god help us. ”
Ahhhhh, point of order but….this is the best THEY’VE got! Obama sucks…but he is not the Hover that is the repugnantklan/teabagger party today. But poor ol Mit, the kiss of death from the Coultergiest!!!
Well, Ann Coulter is truly a c**t, but she’s right on this. I could hold my nose and vote Romney. That gives Hill four years to bone up for 2016.
I will NEVER vote Obama or do anything to support or agree with his smug, unrealistic supporters.
Let’s never call any woman the c-word around here, please. Thanks.
Coulter makes good points in her piece, that’s for sure.
Sorry.
His supporters are the worst that’s for sure. They probably drive off more voters than Obama does.
In my opinion Jon Huntsman is the best candidate by far to beat Obama, but of course he is going no where in the GOP, I still hope he runs as a independent, but your right next to Huntsman, Romney is the favorite to beat Obama. But conseratives don’t like Romney and I am sure Ann Coulter is going to catch hell from the Tea Party for her endorcement.
Whatever skill Huntsman has or hasn’t displayed in running Utah will be far less important than how much charisma he has, which by all reports is not that much. It’s too bad that we choose our leaders this way, but we do. I’d have to guess that Huntsman wouldn’t have a prayer in the general election.
I love the alternate headline…lol..
JEB BUSH has just sent out a letter which he signs, “Standing proudly with Jon Huntsman.”
