Then she watched the Republican Convention on TV last month. "They showed someone from the Kansas delegation wearing a T shirt that had Clinton smoking dope with two babes and Hillary hustling cookies," she says contemptuously. "Well, that did it.

The seven-month, multimillion-dollar trial featured testimony from some 20 dope dealers, pilots and money launderers, much of it in exchange for reduced sentences, cash settlements and other favors.
