I think Obama is charismatic. I’d like to think we are a progressive society, but I lean a little towards LookoutBelow that sadly a Black president is ahead of our times, although right now that’s who I’m inclined to vote for. Same for a woman president. Obama made clear he’s not going to be on any VP ticket. Would she humble herself and be on a VP ticket, if he’d have her, which I doubt.

I was originally considering Hillary b/c I think the Clinton days were good and hoping if she gets in, then maybe we get a little of Bill’s feedback in her decisions. But when she said she was going to freeze interest rates for those subprime borrowers, that did it for me. Give a cookie to those who failed the test and no cookie for those who studied.

I heard on KPBS that government can’t interfere w/contracts and unlikely that what she said was going to happen. Well, she’s no dummy. So I guess she’s just spewing what the majority of people want to hear. So two strikes against her. Now her dirty smear campaign is 3 strikes. She’s out for me.

I was hoping for a Dem b/c 8 years of Rep has done some irREParable damage and I’ve had enough of them. I don’t want to reward them by voting for McCain, although he was the better of the evils out of that bunch, no doubt.

M2C. If you find a house you like and you can afford and plan on being there 10-15+ years, then just buy it. It sounds like your mind is almost made up. You want to be in that area. You found some homes that have reduced significantly.

My question to you: If you bought a house for 280/290k and end-of-year or next year it fell to 200k, would that ruin you? What if in 20 years it went back up to 250k?

Next question: You buy for 280k. But end of year your dream house that was 400k fell to 280k. Are you going to be okay w/the place you bought?

I know most people are against buying right now and that is my sentiment for the most part. I get tempted when I see some deals, but there’s always something that keeps me from buying, reasons/excuses, not nice enough, big enough, no garage, not in the area I really want to be, etc.

I will tell you this. If I found a house I could afford that I reallly liked in the area I want to be in, I would buy it, regardless if the price continued to decline. I don’t plan to flip. I’m not buying it for investment purposes or even tax write-off. I want to buy a place and do what I want w/it, as you say, the freedom to put a pole, or paint it zebra stripes, whatever.

Not an issue for me really because my area is still a little high. I could afford it, but then I’d be a mortgage slave and like you, I want extra $$$ for fun or whatever, in your case, kids.
