Read part of the PR Newswire report and evaluate his opinions.

[Michael Goldsberry]

Krugman got out of his cell again.

[anniegetyourgun]

I love ya', TC, but once was enough!

[KJacob]

This is rich. Have we heard for Helen Thomas yet? That should be good.

[ArmyBratCutie]

this from the man who is reduced to being a "guest" on Air America... I go over to the NYTimes at least once a day to post to him and Dowd just for a BIG OLE LAUGH....if you saw him and OReilly on Russerts show that time, he was a wussy, scared, hate filled, shaking moron.... nothing else...

Krugman has it absolutely 180 degrees backwards. If he wins the argument within the Democratic party, look for more gains in 2006 and a veto-proof 60 seats in the Senate in 2008.

Keep talking Mr. Krugman. Please.

[camle]

what a maroon!

go ahead and lead the democrats into irrelevancy.

[sarasota]

Note to Paul: you've finally gone so far out in Left field you have become invisible. We can't hear you.

[Senator Goldwater]

"Heads up to readers: I'll be starting a long-planned break next week, to work on a economics textbook."

The funniest line in the whole piece.

The religious right - not to be confused with religious Americans in general - isn't a majority, or even a dominant minority. It's just one bloc of voters, whom the Republican Party has learned to mobilize with wedge issues like this year's polarizing debate over gay marriage.

So....how would the math add up if the numbers aren't there? Is he saying an enormous bloc, the majority who love Democrats didn't vote? Again, I don't think the numbers tell that story. Sounds a lot like whining to me.

I have to agree!
Look at my tagline : )

[Dr. Thorne]

Keep it going, Paul. You'll push yourself right off the left wing cliff. Buh-bye.

[Ptaz]

This is the same foul mouthed rhetoric the left spewed when Reagan was in office. They bad-mouthed Reagan about everything from his age to his jelly beans. Now he's one of the most revered Presidents we've had in the last 100 years (in my book ever). The point was Reagan did accomplish something and I think if we give it time, GWB will accomplish a lot too. Can't wait to see his results.

[Drango]

So what should the Democrats do?

Drink Kool-aid.

[Dead Corpse]

Who let this idiot out of his straight jacket?

FDR was a socialist. Any "programs" he put in place SHOULD be scrutinized and over turned if they are more of a problem than a cure. Most notably, Socialist Insecurity. Shrillery's Euro style Medicare scam should go away as well. As for the scrubbing of all religion from public life, that must stop. Freedom OF religion is not Freedom FROM religion.

However, this is not a mandate for censorship and Mrs. Grundy-esque policy making either.

How many calories does Krugman burn in a day just denying reality?

Dear Mr Okkrent
As public editor of the New York Times, I hope you are in a position to urge that Mr Krugman be kept on life support until a suitable brain donor can be found. You have no idea how many conservatives find Mr Krugman's writings to be invaluable to our cause.
Sincerely,
Compassionate Blogger

[freepertoo]

Whatever! :-)

I'll be starting a long-planned break next week, to work on a economics textbook.

He must be under contract to Fidel.
