Quote of the day

“I have a structural hypothesis here. You have a Republican ideology, which Mitt Romney obviously doesn’t believe in. He just oozes insincerity, that’s just so obvious. But all of the others are fools and clowns. And there is a question here, my hypothesis is that maybe this is an ideology that only fools and clowns can believe in. And that’s the Republican problem.” --Paul Krugman, Nobel Prize-winning Economist, writer and columnist for The New York Times, speaking to ABC’s Christiane Amanpour Sunday on "This Week" program.
