Coulter Reception Netted $0 for Beauprez (CO Repub Gov Candidate)

[RamboLiberal]

You’re a Republican running for governor, it’s the last week of the 1st quarter of election year, and a famous right-wing pundit’s in town -- gotta milk that for all it’s worth, right?
If the pundit’s Ann Coulter, maybe not.

Borowsky :: Coulter Reception Netted $0 for Beauprez
But I guess you can’t blame the Beauprez campaign for trying. Back on March 28, when Coulter brought her one-woman standup routine to the Paramount Theater in Denver, she hadn’t quite completed her transition from leggy pundit/author to radioactive slime. So a pre-show meet-greet with the 9/11 Widow Watchdog might still have seemed like a reasonable idea. . . . .
“We found out the hard way,” says former Beauprez for Gov campaign chief Steve Truebner, “that Ann Coulter is not a major draw for donors.”

Nary a one showed up, according to Truebner, leaving Ms. Coulter and Mrs. Beauprez -- the candidate himself was in D.C., working his day job -- to hobnob in the Paramount’s 2d-floor lobby with about a dozen earnest but penniless campaign volunteers, plus some KOA listeners who’d won free tickets to the Coulter show from the station and just happened to be in the vicinity.

1. Ann's a L-O-S-E-R!

[Kikosexy2]

10. A truly cheap whore...

bitch-Ann can sell some books of hers but can't sell herself...not even a penny raise...Ann-the man you are so loved....(gag!).

[samsingh]

18. i don't think she sells books - they're bought by conspirators

[formercia]

23. Or people too embarrassed to be financially connected

It's like laundering money and killing trees in the process. The GOP war on Terra grinds on.

[calimary]

36. Or people who like that swell Newsmax offer - FIVE ann coulter books

for A DOLLAR. Or her new "bestseller" for the princely sum of $4.95!

I'm guessing she's the darling of the cheapskate market.

[zonkers]

41. Unfortunately, she does sell books... at least up until a week or two ago

Maybe the plagerism accusations have softened the sales.

[northzax]

2. not surprising, she doesn't exactly have wealthy demographics (nt)

[redqueen]

13. Invitations to these things usually go to voters, activists, etc.,

not fans of the featured speakers... so... that rationalization doesn't quite wash.

[northzax]

15. sure it does

Coulter is red meat for the wingnut base of the party. And frankly, the wingnut base of the party doesn't have a lot of cash. Businesses are embarrassed by her (can you blame them?) the educated republicans are embarrassed by her, the only people who like her are the freepertypes, most of whom, frankly, probably won't be spending $250 to have a drink with her. this was a fundraiser, not a meet and greet, you don't get to play if you don't pay. IF the people who can pay don't think much of her, then they won't pay money to hang out with her.

[ronnykmarshall]

3. I'd like to be a fly on the wall.

She was probably pissed off that no one showed up.

[samsingh]

19. i would have loved to see the look on her face

[mwb970]

26. Me too, except that I would have to look at her face. (n/t)

[rusty charly]

4. better link?

5. i will smiling for the rest of the day!

:D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

[Mz Pip]

6. How much did they have to pay her

to show up? Hell, they may have lost money on the deal. That would be sweet.

Now we should all hope that whoever the Dem candidate is will ask repeatedly if Coulter speaks for Beauprez.

:dem:

[Touchdown]

20. Dem candidate... BIll Ritter

Endorsed by the AFL-CIO already!:woohoo:

7. Hey, Ann, sink into obscurity, bitch. nt

[Lasher]

8. What happened to all the right wing zombies?

Where's all those loyal 2004 supporters who said, "A vote for Bush is a vote for God." I shit you not, I personally know of a real almost-person who repeatedly said exactly that.

I guess some of them first started to fade when they realized Terri Schiavo wasn't actually ready to play a game of tennis, if only their heroic Decider and his bush-league lapdogs would swoop in to save her from the evil activist judges and liberal news media who wanted to murder her. And for them, everything has been downhill from there on.

[wryter2000]

9. OMG

No one showed up? :rofl: :bounce: :rofl: :bounce:

[TalkingDog]

11. What's that gentle scurrying? Oh....

It's Karma, stealing up to bite her on her bony ass.

12. te he. She will prob. conjure up an excuse--like it was the wrong day or

something along that line!

[saltpoint]

14. Corndogs and snow cones just aren't that big a draw these days.

[Divine Discontent]

16. BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Ain't that the SHIT? I love Ann for being so retardedly unliked that NO ONE in a million plus area came to give a dime to the republican rat bastard on her behalf!

face it folks, the only way these people get in office is by stealing elections, only 30-35% of the population are moron, who chase a waving flag like a dog chases a flashlight! (I just made that up)

17. I sent the article to Keith Olberman

[annabanana]

21. I hope it's in time for "worst person" today!

(if you're a repub candidate, that is)

[durrrty libby]

28. Keith did a piece on her Friday

He interviewed a newspaper where her column

appears. I think it was a Gazette paper in IA.

Anyway, they dumped her, not because of liberal complaints, but because of

pub complaints.

[chill_wind]

38. Good!! n/t

[Kurovski]

22. Very few people actually buy her books, either.

She's a media construct of the lowest order.

A drunken, wealthy, right-wing Manhattanite spewing bitter vitriol and racism as the cocktail hour spills into night.

She speaks for the elites of the wealthy corporate media, and the elites of our nation. As such she is heavily subsidised, supported and promoted by those who are too dishonest to put their own voices out front.

[KansDem]

24. "What if they gave a whore and nobody came?"

Variation on an old lefty standard...

[2008]

25. laffin

out loud

[mwb970]

27. Next stop: a Katherine Harris fundraiser.

Kat & Ann, a perfect pair.

[tanyev]

29. A couple of dime-a-dance floozies.

:rofl:

[Jack Rabbit]

30. Face it Annie. Your 15 minutes are up.

They should have been up a long time ago.

[PurpleChez]

31. Even GOP thugs are afraid of the Coulter-geist!

Maybe they're afraid of poking their eyes on the bitch's bony elbows.

[Contrary1]

32. The Repubs own her...

A snippet from her latest work of fiction:

"Liberals use the word science exactly as they use the word constitutional. Both
words are nothing more or less than a general statement of liberal approval, having
nothing to do with either science or the Constitution. (Thus, for example, the
following sentence makes sense to liberals: President Clinton saved the Constitution
by repeatedly ejaculating on a fat Jewish girl in the Oval Office."

I hope she speaks at many more "fundraisers". I hope she gets hours and hours of
TV time. I want her out in public spewing her venom to as many people as possible.
Maybe one of the main fundie churches can hire her for a weekend seminar.

Yep.

I cannot tell you how many times I have used the term "Coulter Republican" these
last few weeks. B-)

[KayLaw]

34. OMG

I knew she was mentally ill, but I had no idea she wrote things that base. What can I say? She needs help!

[yellowcanine]

33. So that means they lost money becuase you know damn well toxic Annie

doesn't work for free. Eventually one would think that the demand for her "services" would dry up as the word gets out that she is not a big draw anymore.

[calimary]

37. She doesn't dare work for free. She can't afford to. What kind of

royalties can you expect when your books are selling on the internet for $4.95; and at a special package of five books for ONE DOLLAR? She can't keep herself in pencil skirts and stilettos on sales like those.

[MrBenchley]

35. Thank you for posting this!

What a BIG laff!!

[NJ Democrats]

39. Your wrong

It lost money. (You still have to pay to rent the building and everything else)

[FrenchieCat]

40. She "earned" it......

[Cobalt-60]

42. My dream girl

Ah this long legged blonde is one of the few GOPs who's been in my dreams.
Im at cruising speed in my old Buick - and she steps in front of it ...

[grannylib]

45. *lololol* Now that's satisfying imagery!

[Daniel K]

43. Can't help but laugh

Ann Coulter is so full of herself and her twisted sense of what is right and wrong.

[grannylib]

44. How fitting. She's worth nothing, and she gained them nothing. In fact, as

someone else stated, she was a loser!!

How very appropriate.
