How so? Do you know where she stands on any issue where she hasn't turned the other direction when convenient?

The only turns I'm aware of are her stance on Iraq and a softening of her immigration platform.
One has to be naive to think the ideas and commitments of ANY politician are carved in stone. Everything on Capital Hill is negotiable. Look how Republicans has separated themselves from President Bush and his low approval ratings. I think you'll find that the only ones that haven’t are the ones whose seats are safe in the next election. One should expect a candidate to be flexible in light of new data. To not be can get our country caught in an inextricable quagmire. Wait, I misspelled quagmire… I-R-A-Q. There… that’s better.
It is one thing to stand by your principles. It is another to not see different viewpoints on extremely complicated issues like Iraq and immigration.
