Coulter on the Left's myopia

The last paragraph of Ann Coulter's book Slander:
Except for occasional safaris to the Wal-Mart or forays into enemy territory at a Christian Coalition dinner, liberals do not know any conservatives. It makes it easier to demonize them that way. It's well and good for Andrew Sullivan to talk about a "truce". But conservatives aren't the ones who need to be jolted into the discovery that the "bogeymen" of their imaginations are "not quite as terrifying as they thought." Conservatives already know that people they disagree with politically can be "charming". Also savagely cruel bigots who hate ordinary Americans and lie for sport.
