Sorry, I didn't make that clear.

"Coulda, woulda, shoulda" is a legitimate colloquialism, and I have no problem with that in informal speech. I quoted them separately (hoping) to indicate the very common constructions you see in writing along the lines of, "I would of bought a Sony Reader, but they're too expensive."

My bad.
