I just saw this Moveon ad on television:

Paul Krugman has been keeping up. See “21st century prewar crises,” “Bailout questions answered,” “OK, we are a banana republic,” “Politics of Crisis.”
Krugman quote: “Just worth pointing out: Henry Paulson’s decision to let Lehman fail, on Sept. 14, may have delivered the White House to Obama. ”
More tidbits:
The McCain campaign has banned Mo Dowd from the plane. I think in the spirit of bipartisanship, the Obama campaign should ban her also.
Paul Krugman on why McCain must not become president: “The modern economy, it turns out, is a dangerous place — and it’s not the kind of danger you can deal with by talking tough and denouncing evildoers.”
Shorter Stanley Kurtz: Community organizers caused the mortgage crisis.
Even shorter Stanley Kurtz: Blame black people.
Breaking: The House rejected the bailout plan.
… that wingnuts are idiots, here it is.
