I received a mailer from the Clinton Campaign...
FRONT: "Which Presidential Candidate will solve Wisconsin's home foreclosure problem?"
BACK: "Only Hillary Clinton has the right plan for Wisconsin's home foreclosure problem." (Checkmark next to Hillary) Hillary Clinton. A comprehensive plan to end the housing crisis by freezing foreclosures and monthly rates on subprime mortgages. (empty box next to Obama) Barack Obama. No plan to freeze home foreclosures.
The stakes are too high and the future is too important to take a chance on inexperience.
BOLD: LEADERSHIP TAKES MORE THAN TALK.

Okay now let's be serious. Hillary is doing this whole "Solutions for Change" thing to try to trump the effectiveness of speeches. How is freezing foreclosures/rates any type of real solution? This is a tourniquet sure but you cannot seriously think that this freeze is some sort of SOLUTION to this problem. It's a band-aid on a huge gaping wound and there is a huge chance that it won't really help all that much.
I hope this isn't her best pitch to working class people in the heartland because those people will see through this as not a legitimate solution to the problem and it won't look like anything more than pandering.
I can't see how a temporary freeze is somehow some sort of permanent solution as this mailer tries to portray it.
