Krugmans gonna get fired
If he keeps talking about candidates positions on the issues in a major media outlet. Lord have mercy, he's been around long enough to know that is not the proper media narrative for an election.

On the Democratic side, John Edwards, although never the front-runner, has been driving his party’s policy agenda. He’s done it again on economic stimulus: last month, before the economic consensus turned as negative as it now has, he proposed a stimulus package including aid to unemployed workers, aid to cash-strapped state and local governments, public investment in alternative energy, and other measures.If folks aren't smart enough to give him the nod, I hope he lasts long enough to get the party on the right course.
Last week Hillary Clinton offered a broadly similar but somewhat larger proposal.
