The eight years that he was president were very kind to me. I went from being poor to being middle class. Downtown was thriving with restaurants and department stores and music. There were tons of great movies being made. We had no wars.

I don't know what it was about the Clinton years that made so many people want them to end.

All that slobbering over W and being unkind to Gore. It was awful.
