Thats because democrats wallow in self-pity worrying about every little detail of social reform at home, blinding the population to the real, larger problems of the world. As for the new deal? That was a DISASTER when it started, then WW2 came along and production was pushed up and economy started moving... the Cuban Missle Crisis wasn't caused by a republican, it was caused by the Cold War, and Russia realizing it could use Cuba to F*** with the US... As for reagan destroying the economy, do you have any idea what the misery index is, and what it was before reagan was elected? Misery index is unemployment+rate of inflation... it was running 20-25% before Reagan... the stock market grew more than 70% during his tenure in office. Sure he ran a deficit, but he had to keep the economy moving foward instead of stagnating, which it was doing before he came into office.

Someone just got bitchslapped by highlander and BTW, Clinton did not revive the economy.. that doesn't happen instantaneously... it began long before clinton got into office.. I really can't believe you are using clinton as a good example lol.
