Ann Coulter was speaking at a Republican Lincoln Day Dinner and in less than three minutes managed to slam Sarah Palin, Rick Perry, Republicans in general and Fox News.
Additionally she seems to have forgotten what took place in the Democrat presidential primaries in 2008.
She is so in the tank for Mitt Romney

AFter Rick Santorum won both Alabama and Mississippi last night, it’s time for Newt to exit stage right.
Just a few days ago Gingrich’s spokesman called the two Southern states must wins. Those must wins didn’t happen and now he must go. If Gingrich can’t manage a win in his own backyard, where will he

By Georgeann King, on March 10th, 2012 When President Obama flew to Houston for fundraisers for his campaign, Gov. Rick Perry did not greet him at the airport. Good move! Too bad Va. Gov. Bob McDonnell didn’t follow his example. Had enough of “please, sir, may I have another?”
By Georgeann King, on February 28th, 2012 This article was sent to me by someone who said it touched a nerve in her. It’s a pretty good and understandable rant.
“Have you noticed, your Social Security check is now referred to as a ‘federal benefit payment’? Something to think about: the only thing wrong with this calculation is they forgot to

By Georgeann King, on January 27th, 2012 Although pundits last night said Gingrich didn’t help himself in the debate and Romney did, they seemed about equal from my viewpoint. Neither one hit it out of the park. Santorum did, at times. Ron Paul had his charm, but he still looks like the one you’d X out when asked who doesn’t belong in

By Georgeann King, on January 14th, 2012 WMPS the Point radio host Mark Skoda has written a piece at americanthinker.com entitled “South Carolina Can Settle the 2012 Un-Civil War.”
In it, he argues that Republicans should just lie back and let Romney win the primaries. Skoda recounts that he’s been to the primaries in New Hampshire and saw “people fired up” over

By Georgeann King, on January 8th, 2012 How is it we Republicans find ourselves about to nominate a person who is the Father of Obamacare, a disciple of global warming, a Wall Street capitalist who put thousands out of a job and a flip flopper on abortion? Are we daft or lemmings?
It’s hard to believe it may happen. But, according to

By Georgeann King, on January 2nd, 2012 Again, what’s going on in Virginia? (See earlier post.)
Twenty four hours after State Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli decried Virginia’s primary ballot of just Ron Paul and Mitt Romney – and he vowed to open it to all the candidates – he reversed his stance.
Now he says the law must stand and that it

By Georgeann King, on December 21st, 2011 If you listen to the pundits the Republican primary presidential race is in disarray. Cain has tumbled, Newt is cratering, Romney is stagnant, Paul is a nightmare, the rest are second rate. What to do?
First, turn off the news where new polls are trumpeted every hour. Certainly the polls that had Cain sweeping the
