-
- More importantly, Bush held out and insisted that the benefits be extended
- in a way which doesn't add to the deficit. The Democrats alternative
- didn't (maybe on purpose since they got mileage out of portraying Bush
- as insensitive for not signing anything).

-
- So what are the unemployment figures and GNP figures for Ohio today
- compared to 12 years ago? You do have objective proof for this claim
- don't you?
-
- >Should we vote to keep the status quo (or worse)?
-
- When the alternative is worse than the status quo, you go with the status
- quo. Clinton's plan can't ever work. There is no way he can raise taxes
- enough to pay for it. That he continues to espouse it indicates either
- 1) he is stupid or 2) he thinks WE are stupid.
-
- Any guesses?
