Luskin obsession with Krugman continues....

ANNOUNCING THE FAUX KRUGMAN CONTEST So far no one has dared to take the other side of my bet that Paul Krugman's column tomorrow will be about the Bush administration's "denial and deceit" and their "tax cuts for the very rich" leading to last week's blackout. So let's try something else -- a Faux Krugman Contest! Why should Hemingway and Faulkner have all the fun? It's my friend Bruce Bartlett's idea. He wrote,

"It is so obvious that Krugman's next column will be about Bush administration duplicity in the blackout. You should run a contest for people to write his opening or closing paragraph in advance. Might be fun!

Indeed it might -- so let's do it! You can send opening and closing paragraphs as Bruce suggests, or the whole thing if you want. Remember, a Krugman column is always 765 words. Send it as soon as possible to don@poorandstupid.com. Winners will be posted here and on National Review Online. The contest ends when Krugman's column goes up tonight on the Times web site.

Get busy!
