I don't understand her epistemological / entomological conversion the progressivism / statism. It usually happens in the other direction.
This happened after her husband hopped the fence if my memory is correct. With that said, was she a phony all along (remember when she was one of the darlings of the conservative movements) or is their something really broken with her heart, soul, and spirit with the collapse of her marriage? Or were they broke all along?
Perhaps in time all the answers to my questions will come to light...
