"Clinton won handily because he reconnected the Democratic Party to the principles that had made it a majority party in the first place: Andrew Jackson's credo of opportunity for all, Franklin D. Roosevelt's thirst for innovation and John F. Kennedy's ethic of mutual responsibility. He put forward the most ambitious Democratic agenda since Lyndon B. Johnson, and the most broadly successful one since FDR."

Does this paper publish in an alternate universe?

Almost everything he promised to do he either reneged or failed at.

> Middle Class tax cut? Reneged (Rush discussed this in 1993 in "See, I Told You So")

>Hillary Care? Went nowhere. (Thankfully)

>Al Gore as 'Co-President' (Yes that was the promise in 1992) Forget about it.

>Gays in the military? Reneged. (Again thankfully)

"I will not coddle the dictators in Bejing." One of his biggest whoppers -- he allowed (some say sold) Red China the technology to build ICBMs AND the technology to arm them with MRVs.

His "successes" were the result of accepting the 1994 Republican Contract With America and claiming it was his idea!

Don't forget that he was for welfare reform, after he was against it.

You forgot one. We don't who would have won the election if Perot had not entered. Clinton never had over 44% of the vote.

I believe the latter is an urban legend. IIRC, scientists from Hughes Electronics and the Loral Corp. corrected the malfunctions to launch those companies' satellites on Chicom missiles. IIRC, at least a few of their satellites went up in smoke with prior launch failures.

Worth saying again.

And Republicans desperately need another Newt to pummel the massive-domestic-spending RINOs.
