The $64 trillion question

Krugman, via Bob:

Still, the big story isn't about Mr. Bush; it's about what's happening to America. Other presidents would have liked to bully the C.I.A., stonewall investigations and give huge contracts to their friends without oversight. They knew, however, that they couldn't. What has gone wrong with our country that allows this president to get away with such things?

And unless that question is asked and answered, and a corrective measure employed, no mere change of party control in D.C. is going to make a whit's worth of difference.
