Obama Pursuing Same Failed Clinton Strategy That Lost The House And Eventually The Senate --- [View all]

for Democrats after 40 years of control. Bill Clinton ran against NAFTA and when elected turned around and sided with Gingrich and the GOP. He beat the crap out of Democrats and FORCED many of them to vote for it. He also put Democrats in a position to pass welfare reform, the Telecommunications Act, and favored nation status for China.

Passing NAFTA alone cost the Democrats the control of Congress that they had enjoyed for 40 years. Clinton was impeached for his efforts. We spent over 2 years on that process while the terrorists organized. That is one reason why we got hit. We were too distracted by impeachment to pay attention.

What did Clinton's strategy do. It created the economy we have today and advanced many GOP initiatives..

Obama came in and gave the GOP what it wanted on key issues. Designed and passed GOP health care modeled after Romneycare in Massachusetts. He beat up on progressives and told them to shut up. Blamed Congress or inaction and without singling out Republicans. We got shellacked in 2010 and it allowed the GOP to gerrymander key house districts and pursue
their no tax agenda. Obama bares some responsibility for 2010 because he trashed his base. As still does today.

Now we are here and Obama appears to want the same lousy compromises that got us here. He keeps saving the GOP with this bipartisan crap. It is the same thing that Clinton did. Clinton helped get us Bush for 8 years by hamstringing Gore.
