Sporting geniuses such as Tiger Woods have an intuitive, almost artistic feel for golf; Harrington belongs to a breed of amateur scientists who use an agonizing process of trial and error to master their craft. "Padraig is the hardest worker I've ever coached, and the most curious," says Bob Torrance, Harrington's 77-year-old swing guru.

Still, in an interview Friday, Peter Orszag, Obama's Budget Director, admitted that long-term deficits projected by the CBO "would lead to rising debt-to-GDP ratios in a manner that would ultimately not be sustainable." He was not alone. As soon as the report came out, even Democrats who support the President's policies said that the budget would have to be rethought. "We have...
