idiot prince

"Krugman: This is not just about McCain and what he did. The fact of the matter is, for a long time we have had a substantial fraction of the Republican base that just does not regard the idea of Democrats governing as legitimate. Remember the Clinton years. It was craziness, right? They were murderers, they were drug smugglers, and the imminent prospect of what looks like a big Democratic victory would drive a lot of these people crazy even if Sarah Palin wasn't saying these inflammatory things. It's going to be very ugly after the election.

Roberts: On both sides that's true. I think that you've also had a huge number of Democrats who think that the Republicans are illegitimate, and that was particularly true after the 2000 election, and to some degree after 2004. And so you really do have at the core of each party people who are not ready to accept the verdict of the election.

Krugman: I reject the equivalence."

My god, Cokie is insufferable. What an idiot and god bless Krugman. I am so glad that he rejected the equivalence. Clinton was elected, Bush was not in 2000 and although I may be accused of being a tin hat conspiracy nut, it is hard to argue that if everyone who wanted to vote in Ohio was able to, Kerry would have won the election. But count on ole' Cookie with her supposed fount of conventional wisdom to compare the slurs and fabrications of the elected Clinton, to the rage and disappointment of democratic voters about the installed idiot prince by his daddy's appointees. Hey, I guess I am not over it, am I? Of course Cokie is the genius that declared that Hawaii is an "exotic" vacation destination.
