KY-SEN: Ann Coulter Backs Democrat to Defeat Mitch McConnell [View all]

Republican pundit Ann Coulter blasted Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell on Friday while suggesting that her followers should vote for his "lovely" Democratic opponent in November.

The staunchly conservative commentator took to Twitter on Friday to accuse McConnell of backing so-called "RINOs," or Republicans in Name Only, in another Senate race. Coulter offered harsh words for the majority leader, while touting the military service of his Democratic challenger Amy McGrath.

"The lovely Amy McGrath is a Marine Corps veteran. The average donation to her campaign is $36," Coulter tweeted. "Mitch McConnell is a broken-down old man owed by cheap labor lobbyists. #DefeatMcConnell"

Coulter is particularly peeved at McConnell for his supposed campaign against former Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach, who she called "the greatest living Republican." Kobach is seeking the Republican nomination for a Senate seat in Kansas and holds hardline anti-immigration views that are similar those of Coulter.
