Ann Coulter: Gore ‘Perfect Democrat Candidate' in 2008
Ann Coulter supports an Al Gore candidacy for the White House in 2008.
Yes, you read that correctly.
The conservative firebrand author and columnist, appearing Monday on Fox News Channel, said Gore is just the right ticket for Democrats in the next race for the White House. [Editor’s Note: Get Ann Coulter's blockbuster new book "Godless: The Church of Liberalism" for an unbeatable price.]
"He is the perfect Democratic candidate,” Coulter said. "The environmental crazies are really leading the pack in the Democratic Party. It used to be the abortion ladies, but the enviros are about to heave them off the boat because they haven’t helped them win elections.”
Coulter feels heartened by Gore’s constant chatter about "global warming,” which she predicted in an earlier book, would be the defining issue for Democrats in the upcoming election.
"As I predicted in 'Slander,' the Democrats have taken on global warming as their big issue, which they concede that - if it happens - won’t really happen for 1,000 years. Good luck!”
Coulter made some predictions of her own. She said the Democrats will pick up seats in the 2006 Congressional races, but "if the Democrats don’t get at least 50 seats in the House – as the GOP did in 1994 – they should just hang it up.”
She based her prediction on history.
"This ought to be the Democrats’ year,” Coulter said. "They’ve been losing for so long. They have not been able to win a national election with more than 50 percent of the vote since 1976, when Jimmy Carter won with less than 51 percent.”
Coulter said if the election is based on so-called "pocketbook issues,” the GOP should win big, but that is not likely to happen.
"It’s amazing how well the economy is doing,” she said, "but the mainstream media has a vested interest in not pointing out how well the economy is doing.
"As someone else has pointed out in the past," she continued, "whenever a Republican president is elected, suddenly the media notices homeless people again.”
