There goes Newt living in that GOP alternate universe again.
The GOP swore up and down that the economy would go into a recession if Clinton raised taxes. I still can recall it vividly.
"Who said this?" O'Donnell said as he started to read off a piece of paper. "'The tax increase will kill jobs and lead to a recession, and the recession will force people out of work and onto unemployment, and actually increase the deficit.' That’s Newt Gingrich in 1993 on the Clinton tax increase."
