Well, you are right in a technical sense. Her Republican activities took place before she was old enough to be eligible to vote, so she never registered officially as a Republican.

Her Republican allegience was confined to her adolescent years, influenced for the most part by her father.

Goldwater wasn’t your average Republican.

The strangest of the facts you listed was her presence on the list of "25 Sexiest Women of 1997." I'd have to ask what the percentage of males was on the committee that made that choice. (LOL!)

Can’t verify it is factual, but there has been the charge that she told a New Zealand audience that she was named for Sir Edmund Hillary. Sir Edmund wouldn’t have been known outside his own circle of family & friends until some six years after her birth.

Maybe they just called her “girl” for the first 6 years. Or maybe they changed her name from McKenzie.

I tried to think of something along those lines, but came up blank. You did it very well.

I don't know which audience she told that story to, but she did tell it and it was obviously a lie, because of the historical inaccuracy you point out.

Something like her "I've always been a Yankee fan," which became the title of one of the biographies on her.

It was a lie. Even the Hillary camp has now acknowledged it forcing the Leftist “urban rumor” site Snopes to finally call it a lie and not “indeterminate”.

Celebrity Sleuth is a skin magazine that looks for nude scenes in movies and slipage (like the photos of Britney with no panties getting out of a car).

I seriously doubt they gushed over photos of Hillary’s chicken parts.

BUT this was in Bill’s second term when pornographers came out to defend Der Sinkmeister (not sure if the Monica scandal had broken yet).
