9. She Used To Be A Republican

While Hillary has always maintained a love of politics (or a lust for power, whichever), she was raised a Republican. As she wrote in her autobiography, “I was also an active Young Republican and, later, a Goldwater girl, right down to my cowgirl outfit and straw cowboy hat emblazoned with the slogan “AuH20.” … I liked Senator Goldwater because he was a rugged individualist who swam against the political tide.” Of course, Goldwater lost in a landslide to Lyndon Johnson and Hillary — like every college student in the world — went Democrat in one short election cycle.
