That was with a dem majority. Everybody knows that. Armey would have been proved right if the upset of the century hadn't occurred in the 94 congressional election. Thank you Bill Clinton. Thank you Newt Gingrich.

He's probably referring to the health care scheme. They started off with an 8.5% payroll tax, that surely would've gone to 15-20% within 10 years.

The Democrats lost and a GOP majority was elected to Congress in '95. The markets and budget situation turned around and the surplus developed after that. So much for credit to Clinton/Gore.
