Deregulation of Wall Street setting the grounds for the biggest economic downturn since the Great Depression
DOMA
NAFTA -- wasn't that responsible for gutting manufacturing and the middle class
Welfare reform that shredded the social safety net.
And all that "tough on crime" BS that really did make America Number 1, for most people in prison in the world . . the largest % were African Americans, who now, for some reason, LOVE the Clintons who sent them all to prison. Go figure.

Oh, it goes on and on.
They did some good but they did a LOT of damage because they were the ones who originally decided that why should the Republican be the only ones getting corporate money, Democrats should do that too.
Congratulations Bill and Hillary Clinton, the first people to decide that the Democrats should sell out just like the Republicans. A proud and distinctive honor, on second thought, maybe it was a distinctive HORROR.
