Clintonism, Monicagate and the budget

[Carl Remick]

Re Brad's:  "Our choice this year and next year is between tax cuts for
the rich and debt
paydowns. I wish that things were different--I could wish for that
optimism
of the will that would drive us to a substantial expansion of public
investment in the next two years--but intellect ought to enter
somewhere,
and intellect should be used to make things as least pessimistic as
possible."

Hey, curb your intellect!

Seriously, that's it, either/or?  Funny,  I keep reading how Clinton is
going to owe leftish types bigtime, since they were a hell of a lot more
loyal to him than his good buddies at the Democratic Leadership Council.
Plus, a look at today's glowering electorate might suggest Clinton the
Indestructible is in a good position to steamroll the GOP and get any
damn thing he wants out of Congress going forward.
