I was listening to Talk of the Nation this evening (admittedly not NPR at its best or even second best) and I was struck by how different (and inferior) what I was hearing was to the wonk debate (Krugman, Thoma, Gelman, et al.). Journalists and pundits are arguing over whether Ryan is bold or extra bold while we should be arguing over the practicality and advisability of a recovery based on another housing boom.
