About the same. His opposition to NAFTA is a plus, though.

Clinton showed more mental stability and did not use his daughter's wedding to spread a slanderous lie.

I don't like NAFTA either, but overall, I like Free Trade.
I prefer fair trade to free trade.

I cant do Perot. I agree with him about NAFTA but little else. He really is a Republican on most issues.I have to go with Bill again but I'm open for Nader in 1996 and 2000.

I'm with Bush this year. There's alot to like about Clinton's platform, and the direction he's taking his party, but Bush is my choice.

Clinton! Clinton! Clinton! For People, for a Change!


Honestly, continue the Democrat hegemony, and Obama can get something done in his term.

If Bernie Sanders can vote for Bill Clinton and/or Barack Obama, I think Turquoise Blue can as well.

Being a Socialist is not incompatible with being an incrementalist or a "work within the system" type, you know.

Obviously not. True socialists vote for people with no chance in hell of actually taking office, so they can keep complaining about how the system keeps them down.

Yeah. I'm sick of the independent socialist nominations not winning, so I decided to work with the system and voted Clinton.

Hey, I'm a socialist, just a liberal-leaning one, and a social democrat.

You might be an oldie, but I'm in my prime.

But yep there might have been some underhanded tactics in that election. Ya know, arm pinching and bubble gum bribing.
