Yes I do.  I don't believe you can ascribe all the Good Things to one
house and all the Not As Good Or Even Bad Things to the other three. 
However flattering to Gryffindors the idea might be.

And I don't believe the Sorting Hat lets you ask where you want to
go.  What would be the point of the Sorting Hat in the first place,
then?
