PD: lulz, TA
Clinton's first budget was aimed at cutting the structural deficit, with tax hikes and spending cuts. This is generally seen as Clinton siding with Robert Rubin at Treasury over Robert Reich at Labor, who wanted bigger infrastructure spending. Republicans, especially in the House, predicted the sky would fall on all our heads if it passed. It eventually made it through the Senate with Al Gore casting a tiebreaking vote.
We all know what happened after: Clinton got creamed in the midterms then came back in time to get re-elected. In terms of GDP growth and jobs created, 1994, the year his budget went into effect, was a vast success. So at least it can't really be blamed on substantial grounds.
Anyway, in keeping with the 90's metaphors Clinton's budget was his Obamacare: a center-left solution to long-term deficits that the GOP treated as a zombie apocalypse passed by the thinnest possible margin in the Senate and followed by a midterm defeat. The Clinton/Gingrich shutdown showdown is the fight over next year's budget that'll happen in the fall/winter this year, which the Ryan plan is aimed at, where the stakes are higher and Republicans are gunning for big Medicare cuts.
