Neolib apologetics for Clinton

At Salon, Will Marshall doesn't like that Michael Lind, earlier this week, said that Clintonism, as an economic program to lift all boats, was based on as much illusion as Obama-ism is so far. So, after a sharp elbow at Lind, he tries to defend the Slickster.

And fails.

Sure, Will, we had all these new jobs created during the Clinton administration. We also had income inequality widen during eight years of continuous economic growth. We had NAFTA. We had the WTO. We had a president who did little for organized labor.

Will Marshall = Fail.
