Reagan was called the "Teflon" President because even stuff like Iran-Contra didn't stick -- but at the time he took a lot of flack. Of course now, he's a hero.

I think I'll just wait a while and see how history treats Clinton. In the course of history, the question is premature.
I'd like to see who it is that celebrates Carter. What is it about him that you think has swayed opinions that way?

As for Clinton, this website http://www.opinionduel.com/ will be carrying opinions from both side on whether he was a failure or not.
