Will Obama Mention the Mortgage Interest Deduction Soon?

Let’s face it: the mortgage interest deduction is in play. Candidate Romney has already said he will look at reducing the tax write-off though the general consensus is that if he does it will be in place for mortgages of less than $500,000. To date, Obama has said little about the MID, though it’s possible that he will counter Romney by arguing for a higher threshold because of expensive markets like New York, San Francisco, Boston, etc.  But will vice president Joe Biden and his opponent mention it during the debates Thursday? Stay tuned.
