Krugman: This Republican Economy

[1StrongBlackMan]

9. Agreed ...

I wonder if President Obama is approaching this campaign in a "lawyerly" way ... That is building a case, by slowly and thoroughly, introducing one element at a time, because the public is simple and has a very short memory. Things need to be spelled out step by step, word by word.

If so ... He will continue hitting romney on economic stuff, e.g., Bain Capital and romney's record in Mass until late june/mid-July, then he will introduce the "do nothing congress" element throughout July and August.

Then, he will enter his "summation" phase, where he says, "I did this, romney did Bain, while the congress did nothing ...; I did that while the congress did nothing and it produced this, romney brought his 'Bain experience' to Mass that produced 47th in job creation.

By doing this, not only will the Obama Campaigh will benefit; but it hits members of congress as well.

For me, the tell will be if we start seeing democratic congress members introducing jobs bills (in August/September), in the face of the gop's threatening to hold the debt ceiling hostage, again.

One could not ask for a more clear line of demarcation between President Obama AND Democrats vs the gop, that even the most dull among the electorate can follow.

Here's hoping!
