Nothing makes my blood boil like a Democrat who flips. But one who got elected for her willingness to protect abortion rights? Rot in hell, Rep. Cotham! Via Yahoo News:

Shortly before 10 pm Wednesday night, North Carolina state Rep. Tricia Cotham (R) voted for a 12-week abortion ban, which was debated in secret and could devastate access across the South. (The bill passed the State House, though one vote shy of a veto-proof majority because another Republican didn’t vote.)

A Republican banning abortion isn’t news, but Cotham only joined the GOP when she mysteriously switched parties in April. Making the move all the more puzzling, in January of this year, she co-sponsored a bill to codify the protections of Roe v. Wade into state law, which would prohibit the state from banning abortion before fetal viability (about 24 weeks). And in 2015, Cotham spoke on the House floor about her own medically necessary abortion following a miscarriage. “This decision was up to me, my husband, my doctor and my God. It was not up to any of you in this chamber,” Cotham said in opposing an anti-abortion bill.
