TOPIC: economy McCain Obama

TRANSCRIPT:
PAUL KRUGMAN: Well, you know, Obama is making sense, hes talking about relief for the middle class, hes talking about aid to state and local governments, hes talking about programs that would actually put money where it could do some good. Um, McCain, despite all the change candidate, you know hes basically the same ideology that the current administration has had and the basic claim of the McCain people is that theyll do it right, whereas the Obama people are proposing to do something different, which is you know, fairy standard Democratic stuff but fairly standard Democratic stuff looks pretty good right now.
