...there is little apparent daylight between them on the urgency of action once they take office. "I agree with Larry [on macroeconomic policy] - or maybe I should say Larry agrees with me," Geithner has joked. And as Treasury Secretary, he will oversee the most critical component of any sustainable recovery plan: getting a still wounded financial system functioning again. Colleagues say Geithner is loyal to Paulson, but that doesn't mean "he would have done things exactly the way [Paulson] did them," says a source. Geithner, for example, wants to overhaul the dysfunctional, taxpayer-funded Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP...

Trumpets and winds pierced the somber mood with high notes like pangs of distress, and as King Lear began to see more clearly (“Where am I?
