That's an extremely intelligent post/plan by DU standards.

Anyway, I support the bill.  It's passage showed what a brilliant politican Bill Clinton was (or the brilliance of his advisors).  He used the popular aspects of the Contract With America, and popular aspects of the Republican party platform, to boost his own re-election after the GOP took congress in 1994.  The bill was the Republicans' idea, for the most part, and Clinton used it as a fleeting boost to his own re-election.

He used the popular aspects of the Contract With America, and popular aspects of the Republican party platform,

What popular aspects?

The things that led to the GOP landslide in 1994.  Tax cuts, welfare reform, etc.
