"I thought FDR promised the chicken and a radio for every home, but I might be thinking of Huey Long."
No, I was stupid not to Google the phrase before I posted...
It was Hoover that said it...my mistake. :(

It was Hoover, IIRC, and I think it was "a chicken in every pot and a car in the garage." Or was it "two chickens in every pot and a car in the garage," or maybe it was "two chickens in every garage and a car in every pot." B-) I think the first one was correct but I had a tough day at work and it's hard to type with a soon to be 16 year old, 13 pound cat on my lap with a laptop. B-)
