Not JUST, Melinda, during the course of the '80s. Once upon a time, I was a budding New Leftist, working on the McGovern campaign. By the end of college, I was what came to be called a "neoliberal" (Charles Peters, Martin Peretz, The Washington Monthly, The New Republic--- ring a bell?). By '80, I was what had come to be called a neoconservate, although since it included lots of anti- Communist social democrats, it was a misnomer (Irving Kristol, Norman Podhoretz, Jeanne Kirkpatrick, Commentary, The New Criterion--- ring a bell?). I didn't even change my registration until the early '90s, but by that time I was a conservative for sure. Some of my compadres got snookered by Clinton, and gave the Democratic Party a last chance, but Clinton was the definite end of the road for me....even in '92. Too obviously insincere...
