Hillary is a Rockefeller Republican who calls herself a Democrat.  She's hardly "totally against any republican value" . . . she embodies many of them.  Even her position on gun control is not out of step with Ronald Reagan and the first Bush.  I'd never vote for her, but can see why Republicans who focus more on their party's alleged positions and less on the Fox News/Talk Radio brainwashing might like a corporatist puppet like her.
