In those days, I had a very liberal girlfriend (fortunately, I now have a very conservative wife). She was very nice, but hopelessly leftist and "cause" driven (and neurotic). And despite her professing the leftist mantra of "tolerance," the one thing she could not tolerate was a conservative who wasn't open to liberal persuasion.
The election of Bill Clinton spelled an end to our relationship (though it dragged on a few agonizing years, much like the Clinton presidency itself). For it was Slick Willie that galvanized every latent conservative fiber in my being.
She went on to marry a Turkish muslim, and works in a university library with a bunch of leftwing lesbians and other assorted leftists. It's a pity. She was one of the few nice liberals I've known.

Of course she still works at the college. It is one of the few places her views are reinforced. No one has to grow up at college.
