Ann Coulter stuck up for the Republican Party in roundabout way on Tuesday when she told Sean Hannity that voters need to support any “crap-ass” GOPer over the Democrats.

“We can’t just abandon the field right now, you have to vote Republican even if it’s for a crap-ass Republican,” Coulter told Hannity during a spot on his radio show. “And I would name them but I’m not going to,” she added with a laugh.

Hannity, on the other hand, was happy to name some names and began with House Speaker John Boehner (R-OH), declaring “he’s a horrible speaker.”

The two descended into a squabble over how far to take criticism of Boehner and the GOP more broadly, until Coulter got the last word.

“He’s bad on amnesty but look, who cares — there are a lot of bad Republicans, there are no good Democrats,” she insisted. “The country is in the balance. You have to vote Republican right now.”

  2. If I was a Republican I’d be going, :Thanks, Ann. Thanks just awfully."

  3. “He’s bad on amnesty but look, who cares — there are a lot of bad Republicans, there are no good Democrats,” she insisted

    And not that I was expecting rationality, but anyone that holds extremist views like that on either side has completely lost their mind.

  4. Cocaine is a hell of a drug.

    The Republican party needs an intervention.
