“She was telling the truth when she supported my position, and lying when not. I will need unassailable evidence to convince me otherwise.”

Bottom line? She was what Carville had in mind when he made his hundred dollar bill comment.

At the time she made those statements there was no reason to believe she was lying. Now there is. Not seeing any conflict in those two positions.

You can go one step further and weight the evidence:
- there is no evidence to suggest that she was paid to say X (the "pro-choice" stuff)
- now there is evidence indicating that she was paid to say Y (the "pro-life" stuff)
- there is no evidence to suggest that she is being paid to say Z (her "deathbed confession" saying that she was paid to to say Y, including collaborating confession by the person who paid her)
- there is no evidence to suggest that the collaborating confessor was paid to do so
None of these need to change your conviction on the underlying pro-choice vs. pro-life issue, of course. Still, the evidence favors her "deathbed confession" being true.
Separately, I am also curious if there are verified cases of former "pro-choice" spokespeople confessed to (or having been exposed) as being actually "pro-life" but merely toed the "pro-choice" line in public in exchange for material gains. Maybe there is zero "pro-life" person ever sold out to toe the "pro-choice" line in public?

It shouldn't actually matter what one person thinks, whether she's telling the truth or not. Millions of people have had abortions, and millions of people think it's wrong.

Now she appears to be somewhere in between

GQ talks about this, apparently now only available on the internet archive:
Segregationists, meanwhile, had their own racist reasons. George Wallace, the the longtime Republican governor of Alabama, four-time presidential candidate and outspoken segregationist who is often compared to Donald Trump, backed the legalization of abortion in the late 1960s because he claimed black women were “breeding children as a cash crop” and taking advantage of social welfare programs.
And the edited version:
George Wallace, the longtime governor of Alabama, a Democrat who would later join the far-right American Independent Party, four-time presidential candidate, and outspoken segregationist who is often compared to Donald Trump, backed the legalization of abortion in the late 1960s because he claimed black women were “breeding children as a cash crop” and taking advantage of social welfare programs.

This is so awkwardly stupid that it scares me that people might actually believe it.
