I Have A Question

When did Treasury Secretary Henry Merritt Paulson suddenly become Hank Paulson ?

Is that supposed to make us swallow his bullshit easier, because "Hank" sounds so resolute and strong, uniquely American and superhero-ish? Is it supposed to make us feel all safe and snuggly that our 401(k) is safe in the strong, capable hands of Hank?

Just wondering.
