Terribly!
I don't get these campaigns. There's no fucking way Obama would consider Krugman for a nanosecond. Why waste the time? Is it some degenerated Trot "impossible demands" strategy? Then why bother with a Princeton Nobelist? As Jack Kemp once said, if you're going to go for it, you should really go for it.
