It was a Meltdown in Metropolis, a Rumble in the Concrete Jungle on Monday night when Charlie Rose hosted Paul Krugman and Joe Scarborough for a battle royale for the crown of World’s Greatest Economics Expert Guy! Who would win? Would it be the avuncular and learned Dr. Krugman, an Ivy League professor who holds an actual Nobel Prize for Economics, or would it be the failed Congressman from America’s Dingus who most people know these days as “that guy on morning TV whose facial expression makes him look like nothing so much as an angry pit bull that was just neutered”? Your Wonket could not watch this death match live last night, so we will retroactively live-bloog it this afternoon because we woke up feeling dangerously optimistic about the world.
(Applause for the beautiful set-up.)

"Scarborough just will not shut the fuck up about what Krugman wrote ten or fifteen years ago."

Thank you, Wonkette, for sparing me the need to view THAT train wreck.
do i have to do the same or will someone tell me?
paul krugman, why on earth would you reduce yourself to this crap / allow joe scarborough to be considered an equal?
lowers the debate. pisses me off.
For values of "odd" that exceed "beyond fucking belief".
People challenging Scarborough have to keep in mind that he has already gotten away with murder (allegedly).
