It’s endorsement mania in these final hours before Super Tuesday, and here’s Hillary Clinton taking news of Ann Coulter’s offhanded endorsement in stride, shooting a quick joke back at the “Inside Edition” reporter who apparently hoped to freak her out by cornering her with his Coulter question and his cameraman’s assertive use of his zoom function.

What is Ann Coulter’s beef with John Edwards? The human scandal factory who once referred to the candidate as a “faggot” has re-emerged from hate radio silence to suggest that she should have said she hoped Edwards would be killed by terrorists. We already know nothing she says should be taken seriously, so why is “Good Morning America” giving her a soapbox?

CNBC Host Donny Deutsch gave Ann Coulter the Joe McCarthy treatment (“Have you left no sense of decency?”) over her vitriolic attack on the 9/11 widows. Deutsch also questioned whether Coulter’s liberal boogeymen even exist. (A really long interview—a great way to see what Coulter is all about)

The radio talk show host hung up on the right-wing hatemonger when she called in to his show late. Carolla: “I don’t have time for bitches.”
Amen, brother. Hopefully radio and TV hosts will extend this by not inviting her on their shows in the first place….

By Joe Conason — “With the predictable regularity of a locust plague, Ann Coulter and her enablers at the once-reputable firm of Random House have issued yet another volume of fascistic entertainment.
