Nixon won the presidency, effectively killing liberalism as a popular ideology. The ‘96 To prepare ourselves for what is to come, let us first recap the Clinton years to this election was hardly a ringing endorsement of the Democratic Party — President point: Clinton failed to topple 50 percent of the popular vote, and Republicans maintained In January of 1993, backed by 44 percent of the electorate, Bill Clinton became majorities in both the House and Senate. However, the Republicans can claim no the 42nd President of the United States. He began his first term with a very liberal major victory themselves — their candidates abandoned Bob Dole in the closing agenda. He began by trying to tackle a social issue like gays in the military and weeks of the election, they lost ten seats in the House, and their leader, Newt failed miserably, while receiving a letter of resignation from General Colin Powell Gingrich, remains the most unpopular politician in America in the process.

These arc issues that never split Democrats in the past — but now Clinton is co-opting the ideals of the rival party, leaving many of us shaking our heads. What do I expect from the President in his second term overall, specifically the President Clinton is not alone, however. “New” Democrats are coming out of the next two years?

Since it was an election year, What should the Republican Congress do in the meantime? First of all, they have Democrats bound together for the sake of maintaining the presidency. But in the to change the public’s image of Newt Gingrich, the most visible of the next two years before the mid-term elections, we are going to see a Democratic Party Congressional Republicans. They have to do this mainly by loosening the party’s divided about where it is headed. Many of us are calling upon the President to ties to the Christian Coalition and people like Pat Buchanan. Ties such as these reunite the Party under the ideals upon which it was founded. Many others are call­ allowed Clinton to portray himself as a moderate while painting Republicans as ing upon him to continue guiding it to the center of American politics. rightist Bible-beaters. In advising the Republicans to rid themselves of the religious While many say that Clinton’s showing in the popular election is a call for him to right, my main piece of advice is this: Forget the abortion issue, even though you continue with his centrist course of action, I firmly disagree. The President’s liberal may have a legitimate argument. The political reality is that the Supreme Court is support was tenuous at best, and Dole captured the undecided vote nearly two to not going to overturn Roe v.
