National Harbor, Md.– Conservative author Ann Coulter said Saturday that some Republican losses in Senate races of the last election were caused by “narcissism, greed or stupidity” on behalf of the GOP’s candidates.
“The reason we don’t have the Senate is because Republicans keep screwing up,” Coulter said in her speech at the Conservative Political Action Conference. Certain Senate races were “just pissed away though narcissism, greed or stupidity,” she added, referring in particular to former U.S. Senate candidate Todd Akin in Missouri for his “legitimate rape” comment. “We can stop encouraging candidates to show off for the base,” she declared.
Coulter also chastised the GOP for rewarding celebrity status to candidates who lose elections.
