Paul Krugman’s lonely crusade

Here he is on Tuesday: “Yet if we can't find people willing to take the risk — to face the truth and act on it — what will happen to our democracy?”

Here he is today: “Why isn't the ongoing transformation of U.S. politics — which may well put an end to serious two-party competition — getting more attention?”

Get a whiff of that self-congratulatory pretentiousness. Phew.
