Talk:United States presidential election, 1992 (view source)

Was the economy slumping because of inflation? I seem to recall that inflation, while not as low as it had been during most of the Reagan's years, was well below the Carter levels. The economy was slumping because of standard economic cycles. It was a temporary recession that had disappeared by the time of the election, although that information was not known until after Clinton was in office.

== a backlash against 12 years of a conservative presidency==
This is disputable; Clinton only got 42% and a deficit hawk like Perot can hardly be considered un-conservative. It simply was Democrats winning out in the bidding war for domestic spending priorities in the post-Cold War era. Republicans and conservatives can never out-bid or out spend Democrats and liberals on domestic social spending. [[User:RobSmith|Rob Smith]] 20:39, 10 September 2009 (EDT)
