...giving American consumers back, out of the government newly-teeming annual coffers, some of what they?ve been consuming so furiously to put in. It?s their economy, stupid; they made the boom, with some help from Asian imports and Robert Rubin, and wouldn?t it be nice for the GOP to show its appreciation (and hopefully win a few elections) by cutting America a check...

It was an opening shot in what promises to be a sustained and challenging salvo for Gore...
