It was Republicans who created our national debt. Reagan, Bush, Bush II.
Clinton started us on the path to paying it down. Our non-defense descretionary spending increase under Clinton was about 3.5%
Under Bush II it is about 20%. And it was somewhere in between for the two previous Pub presidents.

Correct me if I am wrong but didn't the systems implimented by Reaganomics and Bush pave the way for Clinton's prosperity? Clinton had barely been in office when the economy started to soar, sure he deserves credit for extending the good economy, but not necesarily all the credit for starting it.
