Yea! I really liked it, and was hoping for a sequel. This is great news.

She's more moderate than *you* thought, because you don't live here and have been reading think pieces written by people who don't live here and never bothered to talk to anyone who lived here, and haven't bothered to note her actual positions, so. . .

Nope. Even during the filibuster, if you were remotely paying attention. She has always said she wouldn't object to a 20 week ban if proper exceptions were carved out.
