Shelley Moves Left: Supports Gay Rights

In a turnabout, Congresswoman Capito recently voted to include gays and lesbians in a hate crimes bill. Capito has an inconsistent record on gay rights. The vote is seen as a move to distance herself from the far right of the party as she enters a difficult election year. Sources close to Capito say that she is gay friendly and probably has quite a few gay friends. However, she feels pressured to publicly side with the right wing of her party most of the time on gay rights.

Can you say frank? Must be election time again

Congresswoman Shelley Capito spent a shocking $80,424 of taxpayer's money this year sending out 277,094 newsletters to constituents. Critics complain that the use of free postage is an abuse and is really just a way of campaigning.
