Oh yeah, we’re all stumped…

Economist and New York Times columnist Paul Krugman, the hero of liberals everywhere, did a year-end interview posted Monday with Ezra Klein of Vox. Clearly, he must have been in a slyly silly mood as he told Klein that Times readers would have “no idea with party I favor in general elections.”
EZRA KLEIN: What do you think about the argument that’s playing out on the left between the vision of the Democratic Party represented by Hillary Clinton and the vision represented by Elizabeth Warren? Do you think they’re that different?
PAUL KRUGMAN: I would say at this point it looks mostly like symbolism. Among liberals in America, there’s actually fairly widespread dismay over actually what I think of as Clinton-Blairism; the kind of ‘90s liberalism that is not really taking on economic inequality, not really taking on Wall Street. And there’s a sense that Hillary Clinton might be a return to that.
