How will Obama, Romney address the housing crisis?

Talk of housing has largely been absent from the presidential campaign until recently.

Mitt Romney declared he would fix the housing crisis during a Wednesday trip to Nevada, which has been particularly hard-hit by the mortgage crisis.

Also on Wednesday, the Financial Times reported that Obama, if re-elected, would get rid of the controversial official overseeing Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae.

We talk to Shahien Nasiripour, the FT reporter who broke the story.
