I do think Clinton got lucky, inherited the post-cold war “peace dividend” and rode the rise of international business.

Nevertheless, he was part of the DLC, which were the group of Democrats who seemed more concerned with fiscal responsibility.

Dems are historically actually fiscally conservative. But that means balancing taxes with spending. So they get dinged for raising taxes. And then the Reps get credit for cutting taxes.
