Paul- I'll consider sainthood if he (they!) manages to get the economy turned 
around! :) It still troubles me that for one of our political factions/parties 
to be "happy" the other has to be so abjectly miserable!! That the divide often 
seems so deep we can't even speak over it or past it. I do understand the 
psychology of it- perhaps that's what makes it all the more troubling.
