She is either crazy and believes what she says, or (much more likely), she has made a calculated career decision to be as much of a lightening rod as possible in order to sell her zillion crappy books per year that she cranks out.
Now, if the Democrats were savvy, which they are not, they would steal a page from the successful rightwing political playbook and make this much bigger than just issuing a press release chastizing Coulter.
Instead, they should never miss an opportunity to refer to the Republican Party as the "party of 9-11 widow bashing Ann Coulter and assassination advocates Pat Robertson". The rightwing has done a great job creating an image of liberals and Democrats using tactics like this.
Senator Clinton shouldn't waste press releases giving attention to Coulter, nor should the Today Show give her one second of publicity.

I'm 100% with you, her schtick is calculated and tired. I'm so over her. Next!
