HOT DAMN!! I paid $2.29 per gallon this morning for GAS!

[KansDem]

That's 70 cents cheaper than a month or so ago. Golly Oskie, George, just keep on jawboning those OPEC guys...!!!


...so please keep it down and go as low as you can!

[Marnieworld]

1. I'm sure you'll be voting Republican now huh?

I too appreciate the lower gas prices but I can't imagine why they think it will translate to votes for them. Whatever!

[Union Thug]

32. They think it will translate because there is a correlation

between Bush's polling numbers and the price of gasoline. This was something Hartmann spoke about in the past couple weeks.

[johnnie]

2. What a deal!

Things sure are looking up these days. If it gets any better I might just do a jig. :eyes:

[Breeze54]

3. Don't let them snow you!!! Winter's coming!

Keep your Democratic ballot on the top!! ;)

[Subdivisions]

4. I paid $2.27 last nite! So, nyaaahhhh! lol

[Breeze54]

5. I paid $2.89 two weeks ago...

haven't had to get any since then! ;)

[Rude Horner]

6. We're still in the low $2.50's here.

But it is dropping. It sure would be nice if they continued to drop. AND STAYED DOWN. I'm guessing after the election they will "mysteriously" creep up again.

[AndyA]

7. WOW! Make sure to vote Republican in November, so those low

gas prices stick around!

(Forget that the price of gas was $1.42 when Bush took office, and he was criticizing Clinton for not doing anything about it.)

:sarcasm:

[FSogol]

8. Wasn't gas $1.52 a gallon when Clinton was Pres?

I'll celebrate when gas is $1.52 plus 4% for inflation.

[Subdivisions]

10. Let's just say that when Clinton was president, it took me five

bucks in gas to get to work in Ft Worth and back home and this past summer the same trip was ten bucks.

[ContraBass Black]

29. I seem to remember some Republicans screaming murder

When it passed $1.02.

[Love Bug]

9. I paid $2.189 yesterday! Neener!

Enjoy it while it lasts. I suspect the price is going to start creeping up soon after November....

[Democrat 4 Ever]

13. I gave $2.13 yesterday - double neener!

It will stay down until November 8th then Katie bar the door - the oil companies will have to make up for two months of ungodly profits while the gas is down in the lead up to the election.

[Subdivisions]

15. Hence the summer spike. When you know you're going to take

a hit, if you can, you prepare ahead of time for it. :D

[catmandu57]

21. By next Memorial day

This will all be a distant memory, gas will be back at three bucks a gallon.

[rocktivity]

11. Beats the 2.38 I paid last night

In the greater Newark New Jersey area--may I ask where you're located?

:headbang:
rocknation

[KansDem]

22. You may...

N.E. Kansas (Kansas City suburb)... Sometimes I go over the state line into Missouri if that gas is cheaper. The stuff I bought this morning was in Kansas.

[MrCoffee]

12. Come on Big Oil! Jack those prices way the hell back up! $5/gallon!

Don't let politics stand in the way of record profits.

[no_hypocrisy]

14. Have you hugged a republican today? n/t

[KansDem]

25. Tried to...but the scales kept scratching the inside of my arms. (nt)

[VolcanoJen]

16. Just paid $2.11, beotches!!

Heard a report on the radio yesterday that Ohio now has the lowest gas prices in the nation.

Hmmm... how convenient.

[hippiechick]

17. $2.09 in parts of Indy ...

:wow:

Wish there was a way I could stock up prior to the November elections, cause you KNOW once they're over, it's back to $3.00 and beyond ....

[librechik]

18. $3.09.

that's right. Safe red state

$3.09.

[niyad]

19. damn--gas is still $2.75 here in the springs

[Danieljay]

20. Don't worry, you'll be paying $3 again after the November elections

but most ADHD Americans will forget and vote Republican again anyway.

[Innocent Smith]

23. $2.79

Last week. Do I win or lose?

[mtnester]

24. $2.08 here, was $2.16 yesterday..I fugure Monday morning it will be below

$2.00 per gallon, probably around $1.89

Central Ohio

(pssst, if it gets to $1.70, I can fill up for FREE on my Giant Eagle gas credits...woo hoo...we will line UP the trucks (we own our own business and small farm)

[RebelOne]

26. It's so pathetic when they have us thinking

that gas under $3 a gallon is a bargain.

[Swamp Rat]

27. They go back up after the elections in November.

Just in time for Winter.

[Initech]

28. Exactly. It's their "October Surprise".

They'll drop gas below $2 a gallon so they can get the brainwashed, stupid masses to vote for them while they spend every dollar and minute of airtime they have blaming the democrats for the high gas prices. It's so simple and formulaic that it could have come from the latest Hollywood hack.

[no_hypocrisy]

31. Better than another set of planes going into more buildings. n/t

[Vinca]

30. Gee, go figure.

OPEC wants to keep the Republicans in power because they know they'll never develop alternative energy sources. Big oil wants the Republicans in power so they can raise prices and continue screwing us after the election is over.
