Economic frustration +
*Being lied to by politicians =
*No confidence in economic promises =
Voters who ignore those and vote based on guns and religion.

Krugman and Clinton deliberately ignore the lines in the middle and thus misrepresent Obama as:

Economic Frustration =
Voters ignore economics and vote based on guns and religion.

So, screw Krugman.

So what Obama said was true, but he was “misleading” on a deeper level?

I used to like Krugman.
