Well, she was a starry-eyed teenager of 43 when she gave $1,000 to ALGORE. Her formative years? I don't think so. I hope she is a true convert, but the fact of that donation just sends shivers up and down my spine.
Oh, so you have to be BORN a Republican. I see. It may surprise you, but I at one time was a (cough) Democrat(cough). But I grew up, made some money, and saw the inner workings of the truly corrupt and evil party it is. Now that I have many years of life experience and knowledge behind me, I will never be anything but a Republican. Unless the party stops being one of course. I question some who claim to be Republicans, but we CAN control that via the electoral process.
