...their tax cut proposal provides "Relief for Every Taxpayer In Every Stage of Life," the Democrats quickly swung into action with a calculator of their own. The not-so-surprising conclusion: if you're rich, have lots of kids or make most of your money from capital gains, the GOP is looking out for you.

Clinton was neither a demagogue nor a Demo-GOP. Instead, he became what he had promised to be in 1992 and throughout his career: a raging centrist who would fight for middle class interests and mainstream values.
