"There is bad, and there is worse."

Grim writes:
"We shall face the next four years with some sort of crony capitalist in office; we must decide which kind. Those of us who would prefer to build a citizenry rather than a workforce, or an economy built around small businesses and farms -- that Jeffersonian model favoring the private ownership of individual means of production -- we will not see any joy out of the next President. Still, there is bad and there is worse, and it may be that the bad is not entirely without its silver lining."


He links to a post by Walter Russell Mead about the symbiosis between Blue Wall Street and the state. But, what about crony capitalism?. Will we get the Red Model, which uses government to favor corporate interests (Perry), or the Blue Model (Romney)?
