On the recordJanuary 31, 1996
I ran into a reporter who will remain nameless, from one of the major television networks. "How is it going, Congressman?" "Great." "Did you see the headlines in the paper? It says President embracing GOP agenda." This reporter said, "You managed to make victory look like defeat." I said, "No, sir, with all due respect, you have. There is great reason to be optimistic. The President has now at least turned the page and changed the terms of debate and has taken a look at fiscal responsibility. Yes, there are many details to be worked out. Let us rejoice in that realization."
