Could somebody please give the skinny on what Big Dawg said here?

A very brief account would suffice.

Thank you very much.

Love me the Big Dawg.

President Bill Clinton:

"This election to me is about which candidate is more likely to return us to full employment."

"This is a clear choice. The Republican plan is to cut more taxes on upper income people and go back to deregulation. That's what got us in trouble in the first place."

"President Obama has a plan to rebuild America from the ground up, investing in innovation, education, and job training. It only works if there is a strong middle class."

"That's what happened when I was President. We need to keep going with his plan."

The patently absurd attempt by Rmoney to frame the election as a "referendum" that PRESUMES him to be a default alternative without any need to establish his own bona fides seems to have infected an electorate that's increasingly devoid of basic reasoning skills. Those so infected will merely REACT to this ad and the dissonance it has with their perverted thought processes, rejecting it by sneering and name-calling but totally without any comprehension of the perversion between their ears.

I am referring to a video posted showing Clinton and Ryan backstage at a conservative event, and right before Ryan goes on to speak, Clinton takes him aside and is overheard telling Ryan that while they have an election to run, they will agree to cut Medicare and SS!

If the supply side economic model is so good why are Bush and Cheney anathema at the convention?
