VIDEO-- Obama: "If Paul Krugman has a good idea…then we’re going to do it."

By GottaLaff

Watching this live on the Tee Vee Machine made me feel a little more comfortable about Obama's take on the criticism of his economic package:

Via Think Progress:

[T]oday in his New York Times column, Krugman expresses skepticism at the effectiveness of Obama’s stimulus plan, in particular his tax cuts for businesses:

But right now we seem to be facing two major economic gaps: the gap between the economy’s potential and its likely performance, and the gap between Mr. Obama’s stern economic rhetoric and his somewhat disappointing economic plan. [...]

Last month, Krugman told radio host Bill Press that he is “in communications” with the Obama team.
Good.
