The person who gave that speech was not a conservative at the time.

Nice attempt at backpeddling.

You almost had to label yourself a traitor.

If someone holds these views in their mid-to-late 40s, what do you think will cause an earthshaking mindset change by her early 60s?

You might say "religion", but in response, I'd say that someone who can sway their opinions so wildly in one direction late in life could easily swing them back. All it takes is the right circumstances, and the left is more than willing to bring those circumstances to bear.

Besides, we have NO idea what her stand on abortion is now, and given the SC Justice approval system, she won't even get a chance to claim her view has changed.

She's done, or I'm done with Bush.

You may be correct. That said, she was 48 years-old at the time.
