#2 If the mood in the party were to shift tomorrow, Stefanik would shift with it.

I know politicians are supposed to have ironclad, rock-solid principles, but isn't 'shifting with it' representing your constituents? The Athenian way?

On the other hand, republic-representatives are supposed to lead their constituents, like 1940's FDR?

I'm so confused.

#4 Well, she is a Northeast liberal; would you guys fully trust a Republican congresscritter from Mass.? The Globe bought off (so to speak) then Rep. Peter Torkildsen (R-MA; Danvers / North Shore) back in 1995; Tom Oliphant wrote a slobbering editorial praising him, and Torkie went along with some lib. preferred legislation. Tork wound up being a one-termer.

#6 When the facts change a politician should re-evaluate even rock-solid positions. Hypocrisy is a term thrown around too easily these days.
