Daily Howler, discussing Paul Krugman's latest column:

...we'd like to say a word in defense of the yokels Krugman mentions. Yokels go off to work every day, and then they have to take care of their children. They don't have time to analyze every nuance of every policy proclamation. When they hear pure bullroar again and again - and when they never hear it challenged - then only naturally, they'll start to think that the hokum is well-founded.
