| rdfs:comment | - Ross Perot ran on massive tax cut, which wouldn't have helped the economy and would've once again blown up the deficit that Clinton inherited from his Republican predecessor. Clinton was shrinking it, but the tax cut would've ended all that, and Dole would've just been another George H.W. Bush. Bill Clinton knew this, and criticized the plan for increasing the deficit. He compared Dole to the unpopular House Speaker, Newt Gingrich, which was a little too cruel. In the end, the voters made the correct choice and reelected Clinton.
