Ann Coulter claims John Edwards is gay
Well, not in such terms exactly.
The famous columnist made her comment in Washington during an address to the 34th annual meeting of the Conservative Political Action Conference, during which she gave her opinions about the Democrats' slate of presidential hopefuls. [ QUOTE ] "I was going to have a few comments on the other Democratic presidential candidate, John Edwards, but it turns out that you have to go into rehab if you use the word 'faggot', so I'm - so, kind of at an impasse, can't really talk about Edwards, so I think I'll just conclude here and take your questions." [/ QUOTE ] Her comments were reportedly followed by applause. CNN

Re: Ann Coulter claims John Edwards is gay
I have been involved in a great deal of discussion about this on other forums (MYDD.) I am hoping this will finally prove to everyone on both sides of the isle that she is comepletely out of her head and can't really be considered a serious political pundit at this point. THan again people still listen to good ole' Rush so who knows.

[/ QUOTE ] Because there is a section of the population that agrees with her, making her a potential focal point of political power. Someone like Bush doesn't have to say the things that Coulter says to get her listeners' votes, he just has to have Coulter's endoresment allowing him the support of the far right while saying things that are closer to the middle. People like this effect politics in more subtle ways despite their radical positions.

CNN [/ QUOTE ] GREAT story about this convention - all the candidates except McCain showed up - and Rudy is there, and goes off on the great Republican Abraham Lincoln. He gets a muted response - it's not a meeting of REPUBLICANS, it's a meeting of CONSERVATIVES, many of whom are from the deep south and still aren't over the war of Northern Aggression [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] in that context, this is the last group who would be offended by what Ann says - this is her base - that's why you will see her here and at the radical conservative get-togethers but not on stage at the Republican National Convention. You probably won't see Rudy there either [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] rb
