Would a Romney win affect DC metro home prices in any way?

If Romney wins will he fulfill promises to the Tea Party to cut Federal spending (and thus cut thousands of metro jobs)?

Oddly, doesn't the opposite occur? Historically, the size of the fed gov't under Republican leadership actually expands while it contracts under Democrats. The parties disagree about "where" govt should be big....Dems - health and education..Republicans ..defense. When Republicans are in office they seem to be able to reallocate larger amounts to defense than Dems in reallocating to health and education. Defense dollars also translate into money for key areas building weapons and equipment, defense contractors in this area, and military bases. Health and education dollars end up going back to the states. Again, its ironic considering the Republican shrink federal govt platform and the Dems depend less on the state platform.

This. Republicans don't cut spending. They instead shift it in the ways set out above. Remember GWB?
