Paul Krugman Thinks Obama’s Still Screwing Up | TPMDC: "stimulative measures he took were precisely what the country needed, and as a result America is on the mend — is based on a gamble that the economy will be in a steady recovery come Election Day. But if outside factors diminish the outlook, it will leave voters with the impression that Obama’s approach itself was the problem, rather than the vigorous Republican resistance that forced him to scale back his ambitions.

“What they should be saying is, ‘We have the right ideas and we’re pursuing them as far as we can given the opposition from Republicans,’ which would be more or less the true narrative,” Krugman said. “They have decided that it sounds like weakness to say that we haven’t been doing everything that we should be doing."

DNS Root Servers

DNS Root Servers: "Hi,

I finally began to believe that perhaps “owning or leasing” one’s own “static” IP’s is no longer the answer for the issue of creating name servers for my own use and the use of future clients that I would like to host."
