People DO change....especially as they age.
Problem is that she went all over the map politically. She was a Republican prior to 2004 and then went Demonrat, and then back to GOP and became a “super Trumper” as soon as she decided to run for office. She wasn’t in college when she voted for Lurch and Zero, she was 35 and 39. These are legitimate red flags about Lake.
I voted against Lurch in 2004 and Obama in 2008/2012, but now I have very little praise for GWB, McCain or Romney. Lurch probably would have nominated somebody much worse than Roberts to SCOTUS. I can’t remember any sane nominees from any dem POTUS in the last 50 years.
