You have it backwards. Krugman was spot-on in criticizing Bush's election and Iraq. After Bush won in 2004, credibly, his continued screaming about the 2000 election was shrill. His continued screaming about Iraq was not.
And I say this as someone who puts an asterisk next to "President Bush." I am not sure 2000 was valid.
