Rubio A Moderate? Krugman ...

Professor Krugman had the following to say, while discussing the results of the Iowa caucuses, where Cruz and Trump finished first and second:

Let me add that someone horrifying also came in third. Marco Rubio may seem less radical than Cruz or Trump, but his substantive policy positions are for incredibly hawkish foreign policy, wildly regressive tax policy, kicking tens of millions of people off health insurance, and destroying the environment. Other than that, he's a moderate.

It's always been a source of some amusement to me that Rubio touts himself as a new-generation politician; the policies he advocates are truly paleo-Republican.
