The bond market made the mistake of assuming that since Clinton was the head of the Democrat party, and the party controlled congress, that he could have some influence on the budget.
They were mistaken.
Switch? Are you trying to imply that I am wrong when I keep insisting that the budget is controlled by Congress.
Or do you think it is absurd to assume that if the President and the Congress are of the same party that the president might have some influence on what Congress does.
