Paul Krugman

I have to admit, this was pretty damned funny:
I’ve been pointing out that the dictatorial powers Paulson has sought would accrue to the next Treasury secretary, who might well be Phil Gramm. I’ve been trying to come up with a liberal-leaning name who might seem equally horrifying to Republicans, and the only one I’ve come up with is … me.

Of course, the assumption Krugman is making here is that Democrats in the Senate would actually confirm Gramm!

The tragedy of the situation is that it's a plausible scenario...
