Spin, Spin, Spin

From the San Diego Union Tribune, we have Jeremy W. Peters interviewing a spinmeister: Home sales on rise as owners cut asking prices.

While recent signs have led some economists to speculate that the worst of the housing slump has passed, many are taking a wait-and-see approach, including those at the Realtors association.

“Maybe we've hit bottom,” Lereah said. “I'll need another month before I can get comfortable with that statement.”


Maybe we've hit bottom, or maybe we've not.

Maybe I'm a billionaire, or maybe I'm not.

Maybe David Lereah screwed the pooch, or maybe he did not.

Maybe David Lereah's pooch screwed him six ways from Sunday, or maybe he did not.

With a "maybe", anything is possible.
