Ann    Coulter is back with her latest book,    Never Trust a Liberal Over Three  Especially a    Republican , and this time shes taking aim not just at    the usual suspects on the left, but also the Republican Party    and the forces within that have consistently lost many recent    elections. Unlike previous Coulter works, the book concedes    that Democrats do something better than their GOP    counterpart: They know how to win elections, she writes. In a    recent interview, Coulter talked to Mediaite about the book,    her outlook for the GOP, and why she actually watches MSNBC    more than any other cable news outlet. Read below, in    two pages:  
    This book seems to take a more defeatist tone than your    others. At one point, you write: Even when we win, we cant    win. Have you given up?  
    I speak for a lot of Americans when I say that. After Nov. 6,    2012, I was out. I was done with politics. I was actually    considering starting to write columns on Gossip Girls,    Revenge, the cultural stuff I enjoy. But then I got    reinvigorated by the gun debate. And so I tried to lure people    back into conservative politics by writing a fun book.  
    Your basic case seems to be that Republicans need to    learn how to win elections  
    Im like the conservative ayatollah. Okay, Im issuing a fatwa:    We have to win elections! After Mitt Romneys loss, it was a    natural human tendency to lurch towards a silver-bullet    solution. Some people blamed the tea party, others blamed the    establishment. In some cases, sure, but the main thing is    that with the right, its about self-expression. For example:    In 2008, I supported Rep. Duncan Hunter during the GOP    primaries. It was stupid of me to support him, even    though hes good on every single issue. Why? Because my next    door neighbor is good on every issue. But we need someone who    can win. We need to see how sneaky, manipulative, and    single-minded Dems are about winning elections.  
    You write a lot about how the Democrats are better at    winning elections  
    When it comes to electoral politics, the Democrats operate on    brains. They win elections by looking at electorate and    modeling their races; Republicans win on national waves. The    GOP does nothing and just happens to get elected when    Americans are frustrated.  
    Im proud of Republicans for being the party of ideas. But when    it comes to elections, we lose that. For instance, right now    conservatives are tearing down [Senate Minority Leader] Mitch    McConnell. But what did he do?! By attempting to    primary him, theyre just mirroring their concern about getting    back respectable Republicans. I dont even know who the    establishment candidate that Mitch was pushing that pissed    everyone off. Did he run any differently than Rand Paul? No.    Mitch didnt support the amnesty plan. Rand was supporting that    for a month. Its this image thing that We are the purists,    were against the establishment. But thats how    liberals are.  
    And think about this: In the last GOP primary, Romney was the    only candidate  other than Michele Bachmann  who absolutely    opposed amnesty. So whose side were the ones calling him a RINO    on then? Huh? The average American hates amnesty; and who sold    them out? Not Romney, but Marco Rubio.  
    We have to get away from shibboleths and focus on races.
