Do The Math Redux

Today my son wanted to get a copy of "Do the Math", an editorial written by Michael Kinsley that appeared in the Washington Post on August 4, 2004. My son remembered reading it and evidently felt he needed some backup for a discussion with a Republican friend of his. It wasn't hard to find the editorial.
Apparently Mr Kinsley was watching the Democratic Convention and wondering if one of the parties was a 'better steward' of the economy. It's no surprise to find that over the 43 years (1960 through 2002) he researched, the Democrats have a much better record.
If you remember the editorial, then you probably know that it's worth reading again.
