A: I never comment either way - we focus on our economic conditions, our economic policy issues and as the President said we ... I think we have accomplished a great deal over the past five years in terms of fiscal discipline, a lot of other issues. But we have very large challenges ahead - the President and others made a lot of very difficult decisions and that's some fair measure why we are where we are - but we have a lot of difficult challenges ahead and we have to make difficult but important decisions as we go forward, so that we can continue to position ourselves for the years and decades ahead.
