General Petraeus

Am I the only one who thinks the establishment has latched onto this guy mostly because he has a tough-sounding name that is reminiscent of ancient Rome-- and also conjures up images of cool military leader taken from a sci-fi-fantasy movie?

UPDATE: I just realized today Petraus sounds a lot like "Patronus", the spell from Harry Potter:

The Patronus Charm conjures an incarnation of the caster's innermost positive feelings, such as joy, hope, or the desire to survive, known as a Patronus. A Patronus is conjured as a protector, and is a weapon rather than a predator of souls: Patronuses shield their conjurors from Dementors, and can even drive them away.

The Latin word "patronus" interestingly, translates to "protector".
