Interesting thing happened last nite.......second time I've seen it done. Larry King had on three Republicans.......a neo...Bay Buchanan, a reformed neo...D. Frum, and an old guard GOPer....the granddaughter of Pres. Eisenhower. It was interesting to watch the three of them duke it out. I bet that's what's going on behind the scenes in the GOP.

JF, what garbage: > On the other hand, when Bill Clinton raised taxes on affluent people to balance the federal budget (while significantly expanding the Earned Income Tax Credit for working poor people), unemployment declined substantially. Under Clinton's watch, 22 million jobs were created. Only a liberal can believe that higher taxes directly leads to job creation. Clinton raised taxes to help pay for liberal social programs such as HillaryCare. That didn't pan out, and the GOP forced Clinton toward the middle, where partisan gridlock and a post-Cold War economic boom helped balance the budget. But you won't get the facts from a paid member of the liberal elite ... Tenchusatsu
