Yes...but that's more due to the fact that he was president in the 90s than anything else.

The 90s rocked.

Bill Clinton got lucky and presided over one of the best economic times the country has seen or will see in a while, thanks to the start of an entirely new digital economy and a dramatic increase in productivity because of it.

He should be commended for not f***ing the whole thing up.  And that's bigger praise than it sounds.

Worse than Jimmy Carter? Worse than LBJ? Worse than B. Hussein Obama??? I'm indignant!

To be fair, I wouldn't have fought for anything after 1994 either, if I had the kind of 1994 Clinton had.

I miss the 90s, but but no one cared about the government from 1997 onward. It was just a wonderful decade for the most part.

Other way around.  Clinton was better than Obama in every way, except NAFTA.

Of course not- the political climate in those years was crazy. I do miss the 90s, though.

I don't miss the mind-numbing inanity of the 90s, but I do miss the peace and prosperity.

Moderate Heroes have to pick Clinton over Obama. It is required, you see.

How can people compare 8 years of Clinton to 50 days of Obama?

I'll take Obama over Clinton any day of the week.

Seconding everyone else about the '90s. I used to wonder what the '70s were like as a time when many things went wrong and the big picture was a series of setbacks and national embarrassments... and then I found out by living through the 2000s. (This is only partly partisan. I'm not going to pin the 9/11 attacks, the destruction of New Orleans, or the collapse of the auto industry on George W. Bush.)

Frankly I don't think his Presidency was all that spectacular. Sure, things were good under Clinton, but that's really because the economy was good, and that wasn't exactly his doing.

OH MY GOD YES! The 90's was Best Decade I've lived in! Jennifer Aniston was smokin' hot and not old.

Anyway, Bill Clinton is far superior to Barack Obama at everything he does (yes, even that, according to Monica Lewinsky) and is a warm, friendly individual. His foreign policy was a fail though. The House was in Republican Control, Gingrich was speaker, and the economy was booming.

Obama has been president for a little over a month.

Do you have some kind of divination machine that I know not of?
