They just don't get it . . .

Here is a quote from Ann Coulter:
"The shutdown was so magnificent, run beautifully. I'm so proud of these Republicans, and that is because they have branded the Republican party as the anti-Obamacare party."
Seriously ?!?

She's accomplished two things:
1.   She has blown a dog whistle that will be heard by the 18% of the Republicans who agree with her.   The rest either think she's nuts -- or a cynical entertainer rather than a serious conservative.

2.  She has written the script for Saturday Night Live's parody of her.   All they have to do is get up and repeat what she said.

This was posted the same day a new WashingtonPost/ABC News poll showed the following results:
     80% of American disapprove of the shutdown
     63% have an unfavorable view of the Republican party
     53% blame Republicans more for the shutdown
     29% blame Obama more for the shutdown
     12% approval rating for Congress
     48% approval rating for President Obama
     47% think Congress would be improved if every member were
           voted out 

A CNN poll released yesterday shows that 53% of American think it's bad that Republicans control the House of Representatives.

Just the facts, ma'am.
