Plus, the fact that Obama has a 10+ point lead statewide has little bearing on the 2nd District House race. Klobuchar beat Kennedy statewide by 21+ points and only barely took the 2nd - which Kline won by 16%. If you really wanted to do an analysis on the electoral implications of foreclosures in suburban districts, you should try to figure out if there are any discernible ideological patterns in the people being displaced along with where they're moving to. My guess would be that you'd see folks with more democrat leanings moving back into urban districts. But, it could be the exact opposite... Molly – You’re really grasping at straws with this one.

Pay your mortgage first, but then dig deep and help Sarvi.

Everyone knows the mortgage crisis is just poor minorities in the inner city who cheated Wall Street. With help from ACORN. And help from Obama's secret mosque. It can't happen in the outer suburbs.

With help from ACORN.

And help from Obama’s secret mosque. It can’t happen in the outer suburbs.
