Unfortunately the history is there for all to see, regarding Sandra D. She started center/right and ended center/left. In Texas, we had to deal with Kay Baily Huchison who started as conservative and also ended up center/left. I don’t know what does it to non-white males, but something does (maybe tribalism just gnaws at them), only Justice Thomas has been able to hold-fast from our side.

Never underestimate the power of the herd. A lot of women can't deal with having other women incessantly attack them.

“Never underestimate the power of the herd. A lot of women can’t deal with having other women incessantly attack them.”

Words of wisdom. That may explain a lot, be it women or fellow blacks or Hispanics. It takes a SUPER-STRONG character to be willing to be treated like crap by one’s type, while still continuing on the same path. With whites, conservatives still have half of their type supporting them. Try being a conservative black - maybe 5% of blacks would have your back, with most blacks hating you. It’s got to tough for them, really tough.
