Coulter On Hannity

Coulter, seeing an opening, decided to dive into her negative assessment of Gingrich, while comparing his purported lack of conservative ideals to Paul’s. ”I have a problem with Newt Gingrich’s big government conservatism,” she said. “I think of the candidates on the stage, Newt Gingrich is tied with Ron Paul — and only Ron Paul because of his foreign policy — as the least conservative candidate on the stage.”

“The question is how do we beat Obama. I think we beat Obama with the most conservative candidate and with the one who has been elected in a very liberal state,” Coulter later said, reiterating her support for Romney.

Watch Coulter’s appearance on “Hannity,” below:



Coulter isn‘t the first major media figure to cast doubts on Gingrich’s conservatism. Glenn Beck, among others, has voiced concerns over his “progressive” past. In fact, even MSNBC hosts Joe Scarborough and Chris Matthews have been baffled by the conservative support for Gingrich.
One man has even started a website called Thecaseagainstnewt.com “dedicated to warning conservatives that if Newt Gingrich is the Republican presidential nominee, that President Obama is virtually guaranteed to be reelected.”
