Reply #2: Remember the center piece of Clinton's '92 campaign: the middle class tax cut?

[Hart2008]

Clinton's '92 campaign centered on his promise to give the middle class a tax cut.

When he was in trouble in New Hampshire, and getting bad PR in the media, the Clinton campaign was distributing videos promising the middle class a tax cut. We never did see that middle class tax cut. Before taking the oath of office, Clinton reneged on that promise with all of the sincerity of the student who says the dog ate his homework.

Reneging on a a campaign promise before taking the oath of office was a first for Clinton. I don't know of any other President to have tried that one. He started off on the wrong foot with much of the country with that stunt, but he got himself elected, right?

Do we really want to go down that road again?
