In the 70s, Warren was, according to friends from her days in law school, a diehard conservative. Warren was deeply influenced by the "Law and Economics" movement, a corporate-funded initiative with the explicit goal of cultivating more conservative judges. By the '80s, she was a firm believer in Reaganomics.
Around the time she started her law career at UT Austin, Bill Clinton ran another campaign for governor of Arkansas, one of his central campaign promises being to prevent utility companies from preying on the poor and the elderly. Warren sided with the companies, asserting that the state should institute automatic utility rates even if prices went up. She then began looking through bankruptcy cases to prove that people filing for it were "all a bunch of cheaters." That's not what she found. Later after that realization, she would change her party affiliation from Republican to Democrat.
I'm just saying, I don't think "changing your mind" is the same as "posing," as Styx seems to believe
