  1. Question for the finance/housing minded here…The head of Fannie Mae will be stepping down as soon as a successor is named.Might this be connected to the rumored 'mass refinancing' plans we've been discussing?

  10. Networks already called it for Romney at 11% reporting……35.6%. I guess we'll see how the rest shake out. Paul's ahead of Huntsman though. The rest don't matter.

  15. Funny quote from Kevin Drum:Just as last week we learned that Iowa didn't matter after all, now we're learning that New Hampshire doesn't matter either. South Carolina is the real proving ground. Honest. This time we're not kidding.

  22. I've been to Little Rock and its River Market area many times but never would have guessed.It's interesting that feature and webpage at the Advocate reinforce all the images of lgbt-ism that we are told are wrong (when the wrong people say them).
