Many of us remember those 8 years extremely well, and they were terrible years. There was a general malaise that settled over this Country that seemed permanent. Everyday seemed to bring a different soap opera. After some time passed, I began to wonder if I would make it through a second term. It was that bad. And I vividly remember the things that made it so bad, but I will not reiterate the list because I am so done with those things. I cannot image going through another eight years with the Clintons. And when you think about it, nothing has changed except they are not in the White House. But the constant soap opera still plays on ....
