Up to this point there is no evidence that can convict the Bush administration of not repeating the same mistakes as the Clinton administration. The only problem is that this high tech boom ended in 2000 and that millions of Americans are now waiting for the next generation of technologies, and unless the policy is forthcoming from the Bush administration, I am afraid we could go through this entire decade and not see a revival. I think that is a very dangerous prospect, and I am hoping today, on a bipartisan basis, we can send a message to the Bush administration that they can put together a comprehensive policy.
