Or her staff member does anyhow, here's what I just got:

Apparently her initial comments to Tim Giago were a bit off-the-cuff; her later ones were closer to cautious; looks like she's realized that with so much public support, she's going ahead with forming a clinic. Good for her!

Cangleska is good people, as is Karen Artichoker.
