It is a political year for sure and your vote counts. Just don't screw it up over something neither candidate can truly fix.
The housing crisis is all over the news, Internet, even on your toilet paper. The political candidates know your fears, your "buttons" that need to be pushed to get you to push their button. But, can they really do anything for you, or any other homeowner?
Think about it. First off, they will not be in office until next year to begin with and whatever is happening will likely be a non-issue by then. Next, they cannot do anything by themselves (thank God), and will have to get whatever they want accomplished pushed through both the House and Senate as well, a difficult task to say the least.
Add to that the fact they the government tends to overreact when faced with a crisis as we have already seen them scrambling to do something, yet can't fix anything going on right now. Proposed laws do more harm than good overall and need to be amended if they will have the desired effect.
So, quit focusing on the today issues that most likely won't be there tomorrow and get them to spill their guts on the deeper issues, which they seem to want to avoid right now. When you go to the polls later this year, vote for the "real" issues instead of the candidate who proved nothing more than how to take a current event and play it for all it is worth.
