Eh, not so much. This is Cooper.
On November 7, 2009:
Nevertheless, the Nashville Democrat planned to vote in favor of the $1.1 trillion package.

Last night, Michelle Bernard, who is the CEO of the Independent Women’s Forum, a conservative women’s group founded in 1992, decided to write a diary for Redstate.com endorsing the DC voucher program.
