    If you have to ask that question, you didn't watch it. He was phenomenal: he put it out there in plain English just exactly what the Republican plan was, and explaining that no president could fix in four years what put us in the position.

    this is their great hero a man that was impeached, had his license to practice law in his home state suspended/revoked for lying under oath, has raped and molested women and diddled a intern in the Oval Office. What a joke. Oh least I forget a few months ago went out of his way in France to get his picture taken with 3 prostitutes. But it's us conservatives who have a war on with women.

    Clinton bombed an aspirin factory and let bin Laden get away.

    Dream on. The only reason Clinton had a successful presidency is because a conservative Congress led by Newt Ginrich and the "Contract with America" forced him to the Center. He was and is a pig and a disgrace to the high office of the Presidency. But Clinton, Reagan and the Bushes don't really matter right now except for interesting debate. What really matters is we r going to kick that Facist Marxist ass out of Washington in about two months.

    He was great. He really hit it out of the park with that speech. The main reason it was so good, he got the progressives excited. He had an answer, for every point that
    Romney/ Ryan have made. He also pointed out their lies!!!

    I really like Ron Paul, and I fact checked everything Clinton said. Unlike what he said during the Monica Lewinsky incident; Clinton was on the dot, and was very truthful on his arguments against the Republicans.

    There were more facts in his speech, and very little to pick on. BTW, Min...are you sore that I might vote that direction? If the RNC didn't ridicule Ron, they might have gotten my swing state vote pretty easy....but it's now coming down to who lies the least, and the more folks like you who puts your two cents in...isn't helping Romney too much. Just a word of advice to you and others like you, I"m not Republican or a democrat, but it's my vote that matters in this election cycle.

    In fact, it probably distracted the public's attention from the fiasco that took place before the speech.

    I certainly know that the media will be focusing on the speech rather than what took place before it. lol

    Former President Clinton benefited from the late President Reagon,but like all democrats he was quick to take credit,but not the blame!

    What are you talking about? There was a four years lap between Reagan and Clinton, and the first gulf war to pay for. I'm not an Obama fan, but you need to wake up, and take off your rose colored glasses.

    He benefited by Reagan's policies,which had created a good economy that carried over to Clinton,despite the fact that the first Bush's raising taxes!
    The democrats tricked him into doing that by promising cuts,which they never delivered on!
    When Clinton followed Reagan's polices by cutting taxes the economy really took off,but this was after he lost control of congress,which in turn gave him another term!

    The problem is that the very policies that Clinton scrutinized are the exact same policies that made his presidency a success.

    He initially raised taxes in 1993. Even though unemployment rates went down 9% between 1994 and 1995 real hourly wages growth significantly slowed down, increasing only 2 cents to $7.43 p/h in 1996 from $7.41. In 1995 (when Republicans took majority), Clinton was pressured by the Republicans to implement tax cuts (i.e…..capital gains tax cuts). These tax CUTS helped produce the 1990s boom NOT the tax HIKES. At this point the unemployment rate decreased by 26% between 1996 – 2000 AND the average hourly earnings increased from $7.43 in 1996 to $7.89 in 2000.

    Clinton also benefited by the dot-com bubble. It wasn't His liberal policies that created revenue. The dotcom bubble created house gains in the stock markets and brought in hundreds of millions in unanticipated tax revenue from taxes on capital gains and rising salaries.

    Also don't forget that he ruled under a Republican majority for 6 of the 8 years.

    Clinton could work with both sides, and made it work for all Americans. The big differences between now and then is this. Do you remember what Boehner and McConnell said in 2010? The republicans main agenda was on make Obama a one term president, and stop every policy that he brings up. I totally forgot about that, and one of "NO" deals stopped a creation of millions of jobs for Americans.

    I'm pretty sick of both side of the aisle, but you forgot to bring something up...why couldn't GWB continue to do what Clinton did? After all, it was still the same congress for next six years after Clinton left.

    he also had a conservative Senate and Congress Led by Ginrich that forced him to the middle most of the time. If not for that he would have been as bad as Obama. Problem with Obama is he had the majority in both houses for two years and in the senate for all 4 so he has been basically been able to get away with his extreme radical program. He would have been impeached for his crimes against this country as President if we conservatives had won back control of the senate and not just the house in 2010

    He put the facts out that the media would not, he told it like it is about the lieing republicans selections. Stated again, how the republicans are responsible for the financial situation America faces and that fact that the republicans has done nothing "GOOD" for America. One thing was missed, the republicans voted against disaster relief in 2011.

    Republicans responsible. Are Barney Frank and Chris Dodd republicans? BIG BIG DEMS....They manipulated Fannie and Freddie that caused the meltdown. True that Wall Street IS complicit also. Enough blame for both parties. The last two years of Bush both the House and the senate were controlled by Dems. Nancy and Harry oversight????
    Really Melvin...don't throw stuff around on message boards based on emotion have some facts to back it or for God sake read a newspaper.
