Hell naw.

Say what you want about Clinton but for all of his faults, he was a fairly conservative Democrat. He shrunk government spending and cut the deficit.
1) The current leading prospect for the Democratic party has stated that he would, indeed, choose spending programs over tax initiatives.

2) Clinton only cut the deficit on paper. It has actually been increasing steadily. And, he certainly didn't shrink government spending!!!

No vote is a wasted vote! I can't believe you even said that!!!
