Coulter raises $0 for Colorado Republican Beauprez
Colorado Confidential has a report about a March fundraising effort featuring Ann Coulter

>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.

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.”<

1. Ann Coulter is, on the other hand, a major draw for flies. nt

3. These guys are playing it all wrong, IMO...
What you do is advertise a fundraiser like "Throw a Rotten Tomato at Ann Coulter" event. Live. Sliding scale, all the way: Cream Pie -- $100; Rotten Tomato -- $500; Rotten Watermelon -- $750; Rotten Egg -- $1000; REALLY Rotten Egg -- $2000.
