Her voting record when she was my local rep was good. Very good friends of mine (gay) hosted events for her and at that time she walked the walk and talked the talk. The Senate changed her. Money corrupts.

As for Fetterman, people who knew him personally said the stroke changed him. There are brain differences between liberals and conservatives and those areas of the brain may have been damaged by his stroke.

It isn't always a matter of vetting.
