Coulter endorses Romney

It seems Ann Coulter has chosen who she is voting for, and it's Romney.

It's not really for anything other than the fact that she just wants to keep the Democrats from winning, so she's chose the man that thinks is the best candidate to do that:

The candidate Republicans should be clamoring for is the one liberals are feverishly denouncing. That is Mitt Romney by a landslide…
There go some of my hopes that the big conservative pundits would sway voters to Thompson

Hopefully Limbaugh doesn't follow her lead...

Romney is a Democrat as far as I'm concerned. It's such a shame she puts party lines over integrity.

Why does anyone care what that cross-dressing attention whore thinks?


What's next, a thread about who Britney and Paris are voting for?

I have a problem with Romney's slick salesmen quality. He comes across well in a personal way, but can you trust him? Where are the real conviction if any? Reminds me of Bill Clinton in some ways.

I think Thompson or McCain are more honest although I have major issue problems with McCain.

What I do like is his business experiance. He is a "can do" guy if doing the right thing.

I don't think Huckabee has a snowballs chance, but the liberal press can make a wish anyway.

First, please keep in mind that I am not endorsing romney in any way, shape, or form.

That said, he's in the same business I'm in, and it comes with time. I'll probably never be any where close to that good at it, but management consulting will leave you 'smooth' like that, because you have to be.

I applied to McKinsey, but didn't pass the first round interview

You didn't paint her as a Duncan supporter as much as she outright endorsed him previously. She was an adament Duncan supporter.

But Duncan isn't in the race anymore, she's gotta endorse someone. I'm just surprised she chose Romney over Thompson.

Huh, didn't know that she endorsed Duncan Hunter before. Well, I agree, Thompson might have been a better pick for her.

Yeah, a good friend of mine is a partner at BCG, and I thought I made some good contacts at the recruiting event, but I never even got an interview! what the crap...

Bain just started taking PhDs this year, so I didn't get my application in until late.

Well, take heart - you're far more educated than I am. I'm sure you'll land something great!

I joined a startup biotech company. That should give me some great experience in the business world. I plan on starting my own company in the near future. If that doesn't work, consulting is always an option.

I had similar plans, but after I started consulting I realized how little I knew about the business side of things, even as an expert in my field. Consulting is great because you get to work on the business side of things with a framework to back you up. Most consultants end up getting into the business development side of things, but the process is a bit more mapped out than if you run your own firm.

It's been great for teaching me that sort of thing.
