Remind me again why she is running as a Dem?

5. Her district is heavily Democratic.

Don't know about her individually, she's erratic and unpredictable, and Russia uses her, so hard to peg except that she definitely does not represent my values or goals.

But whenever you see a Democrat who gives the party a bad name, it's probable that person is not liberal by personality or by the ideology that personality leads to. Sure, some may be liberal flakes or those prone to extremism whose attitudes have thus become illiberal, or some other goulash of personality traits acting out, but others are conservatives of various sorts who pose as liberal to get elected but simply don't believe in liberal principles and goals. And some are too undisciplined to stick to the pose well enough to make a career of it.
