"Clinton used every bit of arm twisting and jawboning that he could. And still in the House it only passed by 234 to 200 with most Democrats voting against it and all but 43 Republicans voting for it. NAFTA only got 102 Democratic votes in the House."

Oh please. Democrats controlled both the House and the Senate in 1993. NAFTA didn't even have to come up for a vote if the Democrats didn't want it to.

It's a matter of public record. What's the matter, that not in your talking points?

Indeed, the NAFTA vote is a matter of public record, easily looked up. Again, weren't you briefed in proper MNC shill fashion ? This is the second time you have been ignorantly wrong on the subject, the first when you said it was not voted on in the House. Do better.

The vote totals speak for themselves. In neither house did the majority of Democrats support NAFTA.
