2. I was a sophomore in college......That was the election that got me into politics.
And though my view of the Clinton years is a lot dimmer in hindsight, it was all jubilation back then.

13. Ine if my classmates told me she was moving to Canada, because Clinton was going to destroy the
Nation! Lol! I told Bush already fucked up the Nation with Reagan with 12 years of crap.

14. It was bad even then, wasn't it? The Rethugs of the 90's were wimpy by todays standards.
It has only gotten worse. Remember when Vince Foster died and all the crap surrounding his death? There is stuff like that all the time now. Maybe it is the internet. Didn't really have access to that until I was in college (1995).

6. Thanks for the memories
I remember that night, watching the returns while sitting at the computer, logged in to Prodigy (remember that?). Earlier that afternoon, some of the posters on Prodigy (maybe Bartcop was one of them)said that we had it in the bag--Clinton was going to win.

8. And we THOUGHT we were happy then!!!
We had NO idea!!! That was just "slighty excited" compared to what was to come.

16. I was at the Inauguration in '93.
I lived in DC in the early 90s and I was soooo happy Bush I was gone. Little did I know what was in store for us 8 years later ... :scared:
