[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm a democrat and am depressed, feeling hopeless and angry. But is this what it felt like to the other side when Obama was president? B/c if it was, I can feel better. I remember conservatives crying bloody murder but obviously they survived it. [/quote]

Clinton is a better analog.  Clinton was pure trash, top to bottom, who was inexplicably popular only because he pandered to his base's every irrational desire.[/quote]

Bill Clinton?

He presided over the best economy in the last 50 years and other than a blow job, was probably the best president in anyone reading this lifetime.[/quote]

Although Republicans love to hate Bill Clinton (I agree he was trashy on a personal level), he did preside over a very strong economy. And he was a lot more centrist than Rep's give him credit for. One of his campaign promises was "to end welfare as we know it," and he passed significant welfare reform which included such measures as a five-year lifetime limit on benefits. In fact, after the passage of the law, the number of individuals receiving federal welfare dramatically declined. He also passed a major crime bill, the COPS initiative, which funded more than 100,000 community police officers. These are things that would give Republicans a hard on.

This is the stuff Republican dreams are made of![/quote]
