Comments:
An excellent perspective provided by the Black Democrat Former Mayor of SanFrancisco.
Even he sees the writing on the wall.
Obama is toast, come election day.
i don't think so.the alternative would be higher gas prices,wars,to get economy going by romney.99ers are too educated now for that to happen.
You talk about wars scorpio. I see news articles where the dust is starting to kick up with Iran about military intervention.
What is Obama leading up to, start kicking dirt in Irans face but do not do anything about it until after election. If Romney wins Obama will not do anything as he is leaving office. Then it is up to Romney to decide. Box Romney in.

A GOP-aligned oil industry group announced today that it's launching a $3.6 million advertising blitz in eight battleground states attacking President Obama for rising gas prices.

Script:
Announcer: Since Obama became president, gas prices have nearly doubled. Obama opposed exploring for energy in Alaska. He gave millions of tax dollars to Solyndra, which then went bankrupt. And he blocked the Keystone pipeline, so we will all pay more at the pump. Obama's Energy secretary said we need to quote "boost the price of gasoline to the levels in Europe." That's $9 a gallon. But what does he care?

Visuals
On screen, text from the narration is dispersed through the short spot. Images in the advertisement include a gas station placard that shows gas at $4.49 and $4.59 per gallon, the Alaska National Wildlife Refuge overlaid with a photo of Obama, Solyndra's headquarters, a shot of an above-ground oil pipeline and a clip of Energy Secretary Steven Chu speaking at a recent congressional hearing.
Analysis
The 30-second ad, paid for by a group called the American Energy Alliance, is based on the fact that gas prices have more than doubled since President Obama took office. On the day before President Obama's inauguration, the Energy Information Administration reported that the weekly U.S. regular conventional retail price of gasoline was $1.832. The weekly U.S. regular conventional retail price of gasoline was $3.787 for the week of March 19, according to EIA.
The White House has argued that the price of oil is cyclical and won't be tamed by drilling alone. When the price was $1.83 in January 2000.
Say what you want about Willie Brown, his term as Mayor, or his 30 years in the California State Assembly, 15 years as its Speaker, and the fundamental transformation of California that ensued, but the man knows what he's talking about, he doesn't back a loser, and gets things done in the ugly world of politics. I put Willie in the same category as Clinton, a likeable leftist who at least knows how to play the game.

Gas prices under Baby Doc w Bush tripled from $1.50 to $4.50 a gallon in July 2007 when oil per barrel prices also tripled.
Lundberg survey has self-serve regular hitting a national average of $3.07 for a gallon
May 7 2007: 6:34 AM EDT

ATLANTA (CNN) -- The price of gasoline has hit a new record high, averaging $3.07 for a gallon of self-serve regular in the United States, a survey reported Sunday.

When inflation is factored in, the new price trails the all-time high in March 1981. At the time, gasoline cost $1.35 a gallon -- in today's dollars, that's $3.13 a gallon, said Trilby Lundberg, publisher of the Lundberg Survey.


Still, in raw numbers, the $3.07 beats the previous high of $3.03 in August of 2006.

Best cars 2007
The survey, which took into account the prices at thousands of gas stations nationwide on May 4, found a 19-cent jump from the previous survey two weeks earlier.

Last month there was "substantial evidence" that gas prices would fall, but a series of "incidents" at a dozen refineries worldwide led the price to reverse course, Lundberg said.

In some cases, refineries began scheduled maintenance, but in other cases they experienced accidents that led some to shut down entirely and others to limit their capacity, she said.

Also, demand for gasoline grows at this time of year as Americans drive more in the warmer weather, she said.

The price of $3.07 is 12 cents higher than the survey found a year ago.

The city with the lowest average price found in the latest survey was Charleston, S.C., where a gallon of self-serve regular cost $2.80, the survey found. The highest average was $3.49 in San Francisco.

In July 2007, the highest price per gallon was $ 3.12 in Conn.
I sure hope you( pundit) for Faux News are getting paid with all these websites and time taken arguing with people who don't give Rat's A$$ about whatever you say. Oh! OK done.
Well Louise,
The vocal ones we know we can not influence with what we post. A great many of the vocal ones with democrat leanings are democrat plants with multiple user names. There have been articles about that too.
The silent ones are the ones we would like to reach out to with information.

Obama-Nomics Taking From Those That Work Giving to Those That Don't.
That's why at LEAST 10 out of 10 idiots support Obama.
