Her latest nutcase remarks after calling Edwards a fa----- is saying she wished Edwards was killed by terrorists. She also said the Edwards were using their son's death and her wife's fight against cancer for politics.
Even Republicans McCain, Guiliani, and Mitt Romney have distanced themselves from her. They have said her remarks were in appropriate, offensive, and that there should be no place for name calling in a political debate.

As I've been saying previously, Ann Coulter is a disgrace to all professional authors and journalists. She's nothing more than a personality, a talking head; she's Howard Stern in a skirt and heels. She seeks nothing more than to further her career by making outrageous statements.
Already, some major corporations won't touch her with a 10 foot pole.

Attacking HIM is one thing...attacking his family is quite another. I was APPALLED by the exchange she had with Elizabeth Edwards on Hardball. Not once, did Ms.Coulter apologize to Mrs. Edwards about the "deceased son" comment. All Coulter did was chide Mrs. Edwards about why her husband wasn't calling...It was a ridiculous display on Coulter's part, and if I were her "publisher", I'd drop her like a hot-potato.
We lost our son, tragically, at the age of 18 just 2 years ago. It is something you NEVER get over. I hope and pray Ms. Coulter never has to know what that's like. A family's pain is NOT, I repeat, NOT, fodder for politcal consumption. I am ashamed Ms.Coulter is even a female. She has done our gender a grave injustice.
I hope someday, she learns a little compassion. I, for one, will NEVER buy ANYTHING that has her name associated with it.

Ann Coulter is a product, a marketable construct sewn together with the extreme caricatures of the right wing. All her offensive, inappropriate, biased, and incendiary remarks exist to vilify an enemy and create as large as a separation from that enemy as possible. This scapegoat is chosen to provide a target for a slew of books, television appearances, and opinion columns by which Ann Coulter generates her income. She, like Rush Limbaugh, cater to the quiet, common, hidden bigotries with their very loud rants and accusations, indulging those who listen by reinforcing the beliefs they--for whatever reason--withhold from common public expression. To Ann Coulter, hate is merely a business .

What she said about the Edward using his wife's cancer and his son's death may or may not should have been said. But both of the Edwards has said things that also should not have been said. But as sad as it is it is true. Just check the web and news reports. John Edwards is so fall behind he is willing to do anything or say anything to stay in the race. So who is worst Edward or Coulter?

I answered this question in another way just a minute ago.
She lives for publicity - any publicity. She does what she does to sell books. The idiots are the people who buy them.
She is worse than Howard Stern in a dress. Howard has no pretense to be more than a shock jock. She pretends she is something else, which is the worst form of deception.

As usual, the "terrorist" comments are taken out of context. what you don't mention here is that she was sarcastically referring to the fact that Lib "comedians" like "Bill Maher can say anything negative they want and not get criticized...like the time he said that he wished Dick Cheney had been killed in a terrorist attack.
So Coulter says, "I've learned my lesson. If I'm gonna say anything about John Edwards in the future, I'll just wish he had been killed in a terrorist assassination plot."
So, while I don't particularly like Coulter's style, until I see the Lib side being all sweetness and light, I'm not going to begrudge her getting down and dirty too.

she actually made the "Edwards killed by terrorists" comment in response to Bill Mahr saying he wished Cheney had been killed in an attack, so that has been taken out of context.

She's shrill, annoying, and baseless. She uses personal and ad hominem attacks on politicians she doesn't like instead of actually debating on the issues at hand.
She called the widows of 9/11 names, she calls Edwards a ******, and yesterday, got in an argument with Elizabeth Edwards when she politely asked Coulter to stop making personal attacks.
She is everything politics shouldn't be.

She's a woman that makes a living spewing hatred and nonsense, which Cons eat up. So that's why she's still making news. If people gave her the attention she deserved (i.e., none), no one would know what she's saying. Coulter is a typical Con, full of hatred and intolerance.

I think Ann Coulter should stick to what she's good at:
racing in the kentucky derby!
