Let's not forget Greenspan's monumental screwup in 1991, cranking up interest rates while ignoring the obvious signs of a much-expected postwar slowdown. That mistake cost GHWB the presidency, and ushered in Bill Clinton, whose mistakes on everything from China to the Middle East, to things like energy and infrastructure policy, that we're still paying for.

You have a good memory and are so correct. Don't forget the complicity of the MSM who purposefully ignored positive economic developments until after the election.
