5th District Candidate & Former Clinton Campaign Staffer: Bode Changed Party in 1993
Denise Bode says on her campaign website that she is
"The true conservative Republican candidate for the 5th Congressional District" and that
"True Conservatism is what you get from Denise Bode" At a candlelight vigil for former President Ronald Reagan - who died in 2004 - she called Reagan her
"hero" and said
“He’s really the reason I believed I could become involved in politics.” What a conversion! Bode - the former Democrat and aide to Senator Boren - worked vigorously as a lobbyist during her "hero's" term to pass tax increases. Below is from a 1985
People Magazine article titled:
PULLING STRINGS ON CAPITOL HILL, THESE LOBBYISTS ARE TRYING TO UNRAVEL REAGAN'S TAX REFORM
"Bode was still working in the Senate three years ago when she showed her mettle. Exhausted and eight months pregnant, she helped shepherd the 1982 gas tax bill through the Senate."
