    Is that supposed to be a bad thing?

    People are supposed to change their minds as they learn things. It’s part of growing as a person.

    But congratulations on finding a topic that everyone can upvote.

      Death penalty stance: She said she’d never seek it, and never did. Later, when her job was upholding standing law, she said she’d uphold existing rules and did that, even if she didn’t want to, because it was her job. That’s a good thing.

      Shifting opinions can be good but in her case it’s all about being elected. I actually agree with her on the ban of fracking. It should be banned or limited.

        Well yeah, it’s literally politics, the point is to get elected. If she sat there and explained to the general electorate how the webwork of backroom coalitions and pork barrel conveyor belts actually worked, the fence sitters and side liners she’s trying to engage with would just complain and vote for the much simpler message: “Vote for me and you’ll never have to vote again”

    Who cares? Republicans are dead set in the wrong direction about all of these issues. Not voting for the demented orange treason baboon, sorry.
