yes, Clinton was only good for one thing, the economy was so much worse under him and our foreign relations were so much more strained.
You forgot that Clinton was responsible for 9/11 and let Osama Bin Laden go. [/sarcasm]
Actually, that's true to a large extent. Clinton's national security advisor called him once while he was playing golf to tell him that they had closed in on bin Laden and to get permission to kill him. Clinton didn't want to interrupt his game, and refused to take the call. By the time he spoke to his national security advisor, it was too late. For Clinton, the whole presidency was about his ego. Nothing more.
I think that without the Lewinsky scandal, Gore would have been elected president. The economy was still doing well, and there would have been no compelling reason for enough voters to vote out the incumbent party. Gore, as we have seen, is a nutjob, so I shudder to think what would have happened to the country under Gore.
Really? Do you have a link? I've never heard that story before, even from my extreme right wing friends.
