Stephanie flies her true colors, & they aren't moderate!
Payback Time for Emily's List
Cong. Stephanie Herseth (Donk - SD) ran an election campaign that did a reasonable job of presenting herself as a moderate, in tune generally with SD values. Those of us who looked beneath the surface perceived a different kettle of fish altogether; lots of out-of-state support from groups like the radically pro-abortion PAC Emily's List gave an indication of where her true inclinations were.
This vote is ideal for continuing that strategy of milking the moonbat PACs while continuing an election strategy of sailing under false colors: she is able to demonstrate loyalty to the moonbat agenda when it really counts, and it's far enough from the next election cycle that she can hope that voter's memories will not recall her turn towards blue-state ideology.
