Sorry you feel that way, TC. Compared with Ronnie Raygun and the strange, fumbling speeches of George the first, I thought it was great when Clinton got elected. He was better than they were, sorta.

I will admit that Clinton disappointed all of us Dems in so many ways. And admittedly...he does have that sheen of slickness--sigh. After all, he did earn the moniker "Slick Willy" back when he was Governor of Alabama and casting aside progressive policies pursued by previous governors.

You were not wrong when you called him Republican Lite, I admit.

I just had an involuntary response from the days when I just hated the hypocrisy of serial cheater Newt Gingrich and his other cheating cohorts chasing Clinton in full cry, all the while they were behaving every bit as badly as Clinton himself.

Compared to them, he was good. Compared to previous Democrats, not so much.
