No, you took me out of context and did not display my entire words. Clinton inhereited a crappy poverty rate and did wonders with it. I mean I have said several times that poverty numbers declined every year under Clinton and rose every year under W. Thus, it would be impossible for W to beat Clinton in that context.
My point was and is W is doing a pretty good job of slowing that rise, which has been there but slow and in a recesssion, and I hope his current and future plans work. I am not comparing him to Clinton, though that is where this started, with BO responding to Clinton's comments comparing himself to W.
