I am not saying that to brag. The Republicans could do it. They just don't. We have done it. And it is not being a braggart, but it was Clinton as President and it was a Democratic House and it was a Democratic Senate. And out of the House, not one Republican vote to balance that budget. It led to 20 million new jobs, Mr. Meek, in the United States, the greatest economic expansion in the history of the country. So we have proof. As you said, we know how to do this stuff, and we are asking for a shot to try to do it again.
