Re: Obama 7 - now what?
Where does this say anything about conservatives wanting to do away with minority lending? I don't think they want to do away with it any more than they want Roe v Wade to be overturned. They just want to use it to scapegoat a certain segment of people who don't tend to vote for them.

Re: Obama 7 - now what?
why is overbuilding a problem? Over building is only a financial problem if you only think that increasing supply somehow meant people weren't paying nearly as much as they could be or that some how they were enticing people to buy homes.
What's enticed people to buy homes is the false perception that they were affordable. Just because you hate sprawl and development doesn't mean that is what is at fault.

It's suppose to bring in tons of revenue for the state. You looking for place to get married?

Already married, thanks.
Just curious as to what the chances were, that's all.

Re: Obama 7 - now what?
I'm just messing with you.
The BDN backs gay marriage and has said the polls lean toward the no vote. Looks like a close vote. I'll be glad when both ads are off the air.

They paraded people who claim that folks should be able to do what they want, yet their is a medical marijuana bill on the ballot that is sure to be rejected. All those Liberatarians when it comes to gay marriage suddenly turn when it comes to anything else.

Re: Obama 7 - now what?
And it will.
If no on 1 wins, think of all the outside money that will flood back into the state to support round XVII of this fight.
Seriously, with all the job problems in the state, the precarious situation of the university, and probably dozens of other issues that I don't hear about now that I'm away (declining fisheries?), this is what gets people upset?

Well the same thing could be said about medicinal marijuana. People still care about preventing people from having it even in this country's current situation.

If no passes, you should take the BAR in Maine, probably lots of work for divorce attorney in a few years

Re: Obama 7 - now what?
US housing market was $12Trillion... and probally about 50% of that was overpriced and wrote in the 2003-2007 period so maybe $3-5trillion was crap. Derivatives market was based on these "assets" and were much bigger and it was this leverage that that bit everyone in the butt... not the actual decline in the house prices.
And I love how the investment bankers blame the rating agency for all the AAA on the junk even as they were paying them off to do so... I guess they didn't have to take the "bribe" and rate the subprime as prime. So bankers blame the rating agency for taking bribes, blame the subprime borrowers for borrowing even as more exotic option ARM become "affordable", blame the stupid institutional investors for buyin up the $1trillion CDO market because they believed the AAA ratings and didn't do their homework, and blame the insurance companies and others for taking the wrong side of the bet on the $600Trillion CDS market... which made the leverage possible.

Who's going to replace them?
I don't see anyone out there other than Ron Paul talking about fairness and accountability. The Republicans look like bought boys and girls on the strings of business interest especially the bankers and the Democrats looks like they on a spending spree with abandon before their credit cards get taken away.

If by waxed you mean NJ is too close to call, CA-10 went blue, and the ME and WA gay rights referenda look like they are going to go against the homophobes...
