...approach Stubby Clapp as he's walking through the mall or pushing his cart down the grocery aisles. Many ask for his autograph. Some invite him to their children's birthday parties. They admire the intensity with which he plays second base, they love his congenial nature, and they cheer each time he does a back flip when he takes the field...
...Edwards is revving up his partisan rhetoric, he's also tamping down his populist style. He has stopped thrusting his thumbs wildly in the air when crowds cheer him, adopting a slower, statesmanlike one-thumb move.

Last November, E.U. finance ministers effectively torpedoed proposed action against France and Germany; last week, the European Court of Justice ruled that they should not have done so. Smaller E.U. countries may cheer - "Situations in which rules are broken should carry precise consequences," says Krzysztof Rybinski, vice president of the National Bank of Poland - but the judgment seems stunningly irrelevant. No one thinks France and Germany will be punished, or get their deficits under the pact's ceiling, anytime soon. And the euro doesn...
