Nothing on that list is favorable, obviously the economist knows nothing about economics.

The Cranks are those that sold us out to the Federal Reserve with TARP and the bailouts. For example, Bush, Obama, etc.

Crank doesn't seem like the worst on that list. Kind of glad Trump got "laughing stock" and Herman Cain got "unelectable".

Besides dictionary def. of "crank" is "An eccentric person, esp. one obsessed by a particular subject or theory."

Ron Paul!! Crank for Freedom!!
