I'm not so sure about that.. the 1990's were great times under old Bill. Low unemployment, sky high stock market, high paying jobs..
The economy is going to improve no matter who gets in just to the fact business does not like Obama and his policies.
I think old Hillary is more middle of the road via the economy than people think and is pro business to a degree..just listen to her when she debates socialist Bernie..now her stance on social issues is another matter.
Hillary does not want to be associated with a bad economy and will do what it takes to make it work.
It really wasn't Bill. Remember, some of the big government economic successes that helped the economy boom, he had to be drug kicking and screaming into it- and forced via a government shutdown. The balanced budget amendment and the welfare reform act. Both part of the Contract with America.
In reality though, one of the biggest factors of the 90s boom had nothing to do with Republicans or Democrats, it was technology with the birth of the Internet. It was like the California gold rush and the oil boom combined, on steroids. It created entirely new capital markets and allowed people to enter the business world with little start up.
It was, for a while, the best example of pure market capitalism.
Bill also was pretty middle of the road pragmatist. He was moderate on a lot of issues.
Hillary on the other hand, is a true believer and an activist.
