>>you mean that the folks who always run around yelling "Tax and Spend democrats" are themselves the party of "Spend and Spend" with no tax hike to offset the spending? Do you think the people have caught on yet? Do you think Greenspan helped clear the people's sight yesterday?

>No, people have not caught on yet, and I don't think they will. But voters do understand a bad economy when they see it.

Yea, I'm sure they do. Too bad though that it has to get bad before it can be recognized. I remember Greenspan and countless other warning that those tax cuts would be very bad news unless drastic spending cuts were done too. I guess, just like with the dotcom boom, people HOPE that THIS TIME IT CAN BE DIFFERENT. It's almost like hoping that, some day, gravity will stop operating.
