There is more to it of course, but Clinton, regardless of whatever right wing nonsense you may hear, governed as a centrist and after the budget balancing compromise his economic policies can only be called conservative: NAFTA, welfare reform, deregulation. He talked a good fight and initially at least looked ready to fight a good fight, but by year 3 of his presidency he was governing to the right of where Nixon had governed. Kevin:
