    Mean girl

    It would be fairly typical of reformers to take a stealthy approach to fighting entrenched polictical /big business networks. You could fight out in the open and it appears that she did to a point. To get the goods on a network however, you have to see it from the inside. Having done the that, she is free to react. I would recommennd to many Christian conservatives to first appear as liberals and get inside the circle to learn how corrupt and God-less they really are.

The 'Keep your faith inside the Church doors' crowd would insure that the Christian viewpoint would never be allowed to openly participate in the political process other than vote.
