The wrong economic idol

On the Fox News 'Presidential Debate' tonight (it's still going on) during one of the Ronald Reagan lovefests Fox displayed a graphic that read;
What has happened to Reagan Conservatism?

That graphic and the Republican candidate's gushing over Reagan's economy is an interesting phenomena and one that raises a question from me.

Take a look at these graphs. I like pictures.







My question would obviously be; If we really want a good economy, shouldn't we be looking at the Clinton model?
