Forgive me for being slow on the uptake, but the inimitable Louden Wainwright III has written a song called The Paul Krugman Blues. It’s very droll: “When Paul goes on The NewsHour to talk to old Jim Lehrer/ He looks so sad and crestfallen it’s more than I can bear/ And all the other experts all seem way off base/ And I guess that I identify with that pissed off look on Paul’s face.” I love it!
