And these numbers are relevant, how?
I guess that they are relevant if you really truly believe that Al Gore
invented the Internet, and if you believe that the recessions of '82, '91,
and '01 were all the Republicans' fault. If only we had Democratic
Presidents, then I am sure that we would never have had recessions and the
1990's asset bubble would have last forever, eh?
And of course, I would also point out that it takes some pretty interesting
temporal dynamics to use economic results from the Clinton years to explain
voting patterns that have held for the past 30 years.
