... it is from a few years ago, but what the hey? She says she hasn't been on the NRA board since 2012.

"Say hello to the divalicious Cleta Mitchell. She’s a former member of the Oklahoma House of Representatives, a current partner in the D.C. office of Foley & Lardner, and one of the nation’s top political and election law experts. If you’ve seen her in person, you know that she’s sleek, stylish, opinionated, and outspoken."

"Her subsequent transformation from Democrat to Republican calls to mind the transformative aspect of drag queen performance. And when you see Cleta Mitchell speak in public, there’s a wonderfully performative quality to her presentation. She is a camp figure."
