Actually, I see things a little differently than many here. I thought the Republican congress did a good job dealling with Clinton after 1994. Without divided government, we never would have had the economy or budget surpluses that Clinton is so proud of. It was only after Bush was elected that the Republicans went really crazy spending money. In the absence of a single veto from Bush, I have to believe that they were doing exactly what he wanted them to do. It got even worse after the 2004 election....

Some of the deficit spending can be blamed on 9/11 and the wars. However, the Rs had 6 years to figure it out on the financial side and did a horrid job. It horrified true conservatives. That said the socialists were unified and determined (as always.)
