  Julia was nicknamed “the Terminator” for her cutting tirades; many of the earliest monologues were witty and full of common sense, and Julia also espoused very liberal thoughts, especially as the series progressed, at one point toasting Bill Clinton on air. Carter, who had established a singing career and been featured as the headliner in many concerts, made a deal with the show’s producers; for every liberal tirade, she’d get to sing a song in an upcoming episode. Carter once kiddingly described herself as “the only Republican in show business”, a reference to her belief that Hollywood is full of liberals.

  Julia Sugarbaker was one of my early liberal role models, so it really tickles me to find out that Dixie Carter is a Republican.
