Don, doesn't this make Drew's point??  Look what happened with the same party 
in control of Congress AND the White House.  Amuck, amuck, amuck.  Why would 
we think Dems in control of both (all three) be any better if not worse.

And, by the bye, Clinton's supposed budget surplus was fake, just like recent 
house "values".  The surplus was on the heels of the dotbomb.com runup of 
internet companies and their stocks.  Just as soon as that bubble burst, all the 
fake wealth evaporated.  It had nothing at all to do with Clinton's 
leadership, it just happened by chance that the bubble inflated during his watch and 
deflated during George's.
