[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 6114335, member: 24302"] Again you demonstrate a lack of knowledge. NAFTA was signed in1992 under George H.W. Bush. It went into effect on Jan.1, 1994. Clinton wouldn't lose Congress because of Republican sponsored NAFTA. He lost because he tried to enact a bunch of far Left ideas in 1993-1994 that would've increased taxes. Led to the '94 midterm being called "the year of the angry white male." You just said he probably lost Congress because of the far right things he did. Why would Republicans be angry at him doing far right things? No, after he got thumped in the '94 midterm, that made Congress completely Republican for the first time in 40 years, he hired a Republican campaign consultant named Dick Morris who told him he had to advocate a number of Republican policies to have any chance of being reelected. Which is exactly what he did. But he was a centrist, not a right winger. [/QUOTE]
