Ann Coulter is said to have endorsed Mitt Romney. This article questions the value of that, given that Mitt is Mr. flip flop.
Credulous Coulter and Misleading Mitt: like birds of a feather
Quote:
Ken Marotte | January 25, 2008
I've said it before and I'll say it again: Ann Coulter is a liability, not an asset, to the conservative movement.
In her January 16 opinion-editorial, Coulter reveals herself a shameless Romney supporter. She admits: "I've been casually taking swipes at Mitt Romney for the past year based on the assumption that, in the end, Republicans would choose him as our nominee. My thinking was that Romney would be our nominee because he is manifestly the best candidate."
Mitt Romney, whose record is laced with blatant inconsistency, is the "best candidate"? Had Ms. Coulter done her research prior to composing her piece? "I've looked and looked," writes she, "and the only issue I can find that Romney has 'flipped' on is abortion." Unfortunately, this contradiction, which Coulter conveniently downplays, is just one of many parts of Romney's unpardonable record.

Maybe, Coulter has a secret leftististo (or whatever the latest reich-wing slander of the progressives is being called these days) twinge that no one knew about.
And of course, the RTL crowd thinks Coulter is nuts, not unlike the rest of sane America, but for a different reason.
American RTL Rebukes Ann Coulter -- Coulter Endorses Pro-Abortion Mitt RomneyQuote:
DENVER, Jan. 25 /Christian Newswire/ -- American RTL Action president Steve Curtis is challenging the wisdom and pro-life leadership of Ann Coulter for her endorsement of pro-abortion Mitt Romney for president. The group's ARTLaction.com site documents Romney's recent promotion of child killing with links to official government websites, Romney's own campaign, mainstream sources, and audio and video clips of the candidate himself:
Mitt Romney claims, "On every piece of legislation, I came down on the side of life." "That is a lie," said Curtis, former chairman of the Colorado Republican Party. In April 2006 Romney signed the Massachusetts Health Care Reform Plan that pays for even elective abortions. Today he falsely claims a 1981 court ruling about "medically necessary" abortions forced him to provide tax-funded elective abortion, showing he prioritizes socialized "health care" over protecting kids, even when that "health care" actually intentionally kills children. Romney gave a permanent seat on the Massachusetts payment policy advisory board to the nation's leading abortionists at Planned Parenthood. Romney signed the 2005 bill that promotes chemical abortions with Plan B. As Governor he appointed openly pro-abortion Democrat Matt Nestor to a district court; and disputing a ruling from his own state health department Romney personally argued that pro-life hospitals must dispense abortifacients.
