Ted, in times of fiscal strife, your real priorities shine through. Being a fiscal conservative means some painful choices have to be made when it comes to cutting spending. Bill Clinton never really had to make those choices, so I'm not sure he demonstrated that he could be a "fiscal conservative."

On the contrary, he did make difficult decisions. When he entered office this country was saddled with a huge deficit. That deficit was whittled down over 8 years......that does not happen by magic.

Tenchusatsu,

Bill Clinton never really had to make those choices, so I'm not sure he demonstrated that he could be a "fiscal conservative."

And when choices had to be made, they were made by the Republican Congress. The sad thing is that the Republican Congress has lost its backbone, and now, they are not much better than if the Democrats were in majority.

Joe
