    Am I being TOO optimistic?  Not according to CNN whose lead article on Sunday’s Fannie Mae/Freddy Mac takeover by the Fed opened with the exact line, “Home buyers rejoice!”  The Fed’s move to takeover Fannie and Freddy has huge and immediate implications for home buyers.   To borrow a quote from my good friend Vince Kingston [...]
