That email that Snopes validated may have answered a question that I was having trouble with. Considering all of the other things about her record and history that she has been caught fabricating (which is most of it), I really didn't feel that her claim to have been a "reformer" passed the smell test at all, but I was having some difficulty figuring out the angle. Nothing added up. With the information in that email, it all fits together like a jigsaw puzzle.
