After she "evolved" on gay rights, I'm actually glad Ros-Lehtinen left the Catholic Church and joined the (rapidly declining) faux Christian Episcopalians. There are a number of pro-abortion and pro-gay rights "Catholics" who get away with falsely marketing themselves as practicing members while preaching heresy. The local Catholic bishop in Miami likely wouldn't have disciplined Ros-Lehtinen for her betrayal. Churches that uphold traditional values need to purge their false members (similarly, Jimmy Carter voluntarily left the Southern Baptist Convention) At least she's honest that her faith is no longer Catholic, too bad she's not honest about "Rodrigo" being a girl.

Per Wikipedia, it says Ros-Lehtinen's husband was a RAT state legislator who switched to the GOP after marrying her. Looks like the other way around to me, she married him and switched to supporting the RAT party, but continued to run for office with an "R" next to her name anyway.

I think AuH2ORepublican said the heavily homo areas of her district (South Beach and Key West) have since been drawn into other districts, but she remains as rabidly pro-gay as ever. Her district did go to Obama in 2012, but it has a PVI rating of R+2 nationally. Basically it can go either way but leans just so slightly Republican. I'm betting its more GOP friendly than it was when Claude Pepper represented it.

Speaking of pro-gay rights RINOs, has anyone heard anything more from Liz Cheney mulling a run for the open congressional seat in Wyoming? Are the misguided Tea Party groups and Mark Levin still fooled by Princess Liz? Is she going to restart her phony "feud" with her sister until she can get elected and join Ros-Lehtinen in the "LGBT Equality Caucus"?

Not at the Presidential level. It voted 55% for Reagan in 1980, 60% in 1984 and 58% for Bush, Sr. in 1988 (as Pepper won his last term before his death).

Ros-Lehtinen decinitely lost Key West in the 2012 redistricting, but I think that she kept South Beach. In any event, I used to think that her pro-gay voting tecord was due to all of those gay constituents from 2002-2010, but that was before I learned of her “transgender” daughter.
