Romney, McCain Camps Step Away from Coulter Slur

by Sean Hackbarth

Editor & Publisher reports Presidential campaigns stepped back from Ann Coulter’s gay slur said on Friday:

On Saturday, Kevin Madden, a spokesman for Romney said: “It was an offensive remark. Governor Romney believes all people should be treated with dignity and respect.”

“The comments were wildly inappropriate,” said Brian Jones, a spokesman for McCain.

It was really important for the Romney campaign to say something because Coulter said Mitt was her choice for President. That’s support he doesn’t want.

A Giuliani spokesman didn’t offer a statement because she didn’t hear the speech.
