add to cart   close window

The article discusses the impeachment trial of U.S. President Bill Clinton. The article says that Republicans highlighted the sex scandal of Clinton because of the absence of anything other than scandal to sell. Clinton stole their staples by presenting a balanced budget, welfare repeal, more prisons, police and executions. Democrats can also be far more trusted on kitchen-table issues including schools, jobs, social security, minimum wage and healthcare. The perennial Republican hole card tax cuts, has been trumped twice by Medicare in 1996 and social security in 1998. This has caused the popularity of Clinton amidst a troubled sea.
