Romney Cynical, Gingrich Clueless, So Sayeth Krugman

American Thinker

This post is similar to what was known in the early days of blogging as a Fisking.   It seems not to be as stylish as it may have been.  A good fisking would thorough nuking of his arguments.  It is a creditable job, but I wonder if I may add a few things and while I am at it, maybe throw in a few dollops of style.  On second thought, my style points aren't any better, but I am tempted to give it a shot anyway, because Krugman is leading with his chin.

Let's just make it simple.  What Krugman is saying is that the problems are so big that the Republicans can't handle them any better than Obama has.  This is an admission of failure.  Krugman has been saying all along that the year before the election is critical and this year has not been good for Obama.  In his own mind, he can't see victory ahead, but he can at least try to sully the Republicans as much as he can and perhaps salvage some regrouping point from a political debacle that he fears is coming.
