As Tigerhawk perceptively notes, there are at least two personas to Paul Krugman. I'd count at least three. The first is the one in which Krugman was a very good economist and came up with some interesting theories. He was well regarded in international trade law circles.
Then, Krugman went to work for Enron.
He also became a columnist for the New York Times in which he spews nonsensical ravings showcasing a lunatic mind that focuses endlessly on President Bush almost pathologically.
Krugman won the Nobel Prize for his earlier works, though one has to wonder just how his later anti-Bush writings at the Times influenced the voters.
Many folks are incredulous at Krugman winning, mostly because of Krugman's incessant and inane rants in the Times, including Don Surber, Jammie, Sister Toldjah, and memeorandum has the run down.
