really bad idea to be saying nice things about bailed out bankers, goldman sachs in particular? he doesn't have to bash bankers every step of the way but to respond to a question about bonuses solely by praising free markets and comparing blankers to baseball stars is clueless, not that baseball stars and their salaries are particularly popular with the american people. but you get the point. krugeman and others are really going to town on this, right? >> reporter: the point that kruge amman and others make is that baseball stars didn't have anything to do with causing the current recession and economic pay and millions of americans are still suffering through. i think this whole bruehaha is that maybe they don't know exactly who they should be angry at or why they should be angry, but they are definitely not keen on hearing great, positive things about wall street bankers. >> next thing you know, they'll be taking steroids. victoria mcgrane from politico,
