Ann Coulter MSNBC interview with Last Word host Lawrence O’ Donnell.
If we don't run christie, romney will be the nominee.
>> here's the truth nobody's talking about. you'll have to raise the retirement age for social security. oh, i just said it. and i'm still standing here. i did not vaporize into the carpeting. and i said it.
>> in the spotlight tonight, new jersey governor chris christie's blunt speech yesterday in washington has more republicans calling for him to run for president. the leading cheerleader of the christie for president movement is ann coulter, who made news at cpac last weekend by saying christie is the only republican who can beat barack obama. and tuesday she continued her draft christie campaign by comparing him to the most admired republican of the 20th century, ronald reagan.
>> i don't care if he wants to run. his country needs him.
>> social issues and some --
>> he's pro-life. a lot of false rumors about him.
>> health care, immigration, some other issues he's --
>> there are a few things he's a little soft on, but by the way, our whitewash memories of reagan, he was soft on a few thing, too.
>> joining me now, my former msnbc colleague, ann coulter. ann, thank you for being here tonight.
>> thank you for having me.
>> does msnbc still appear on your resume anywhere or has that been whitewashed soviet style?
>> it's the only network i've ever worked for. started with you.
>> there you go. here's the idea for tonight.
>> yes.
>> we're going to try, for a change of pace for you --
>> yes.
>> we're going to try to find areas of agreement. going to reach across the aisle for areas of agreement.
>> can i play, too?
>> yes, yes, indeed. so, for example, an area of agreement we seem to have, mitt romney is a loser. please expound.
>> well, i wouldn't say that. i mean, he may well be the best candidate if it's not my love, chris christie. and when it came down to three candidates, huckaby, mccain, or romney, i was totally for romney if that's what my choice is. maybe i'm wrong about my predictions saying he would run.
>> you're right. you said romney would lose. totally right.
