GOP presidential candidate Newt Gingrich this morning chided the Obama administration, saying the president has a goal getting us to pay European-level prices for gas.
This president and his secretary of anti-energy, Dr. Chu, have as a goal getting us to pay European-level prices of $8 or $9. Dr. Chu was clear about that before he became secretary. He wants us to get to be a European-level price structure of $8 or $9 a gallon, said Gingrich. He said this week, in testifying in the House, he has no intention of trying to lower the price of oil or the price of gasoline. The American people on the other hand would much rather pay $2.50 and be independent of Saudi Arabia than be where we are today.

The Emperor and Dr. Chu have no car; Buy no gas.
I call BS, Obama if elected will bring gas or diesel to over $50 a gallon.
Thats how much any person who has been classified as an anti-socialist protestor, refuses to partake of Obamacare, refuses to pay Union dues or is involved with any conservative social group.
All the Obama supporters will get waiver cards for deep discounts based upon party support.
Tell 'em Newt!
Newt is dead right.
Our only chance to save America.
Romney will not stop Obamacare and Rick Santorum will be run by RINO’s.
If my fellow Americans are that stupid, I will give up caring.
LMAO!! I could actually see Newt showing up with that podium.
“Romney will not stop Obamacare...”
I saw a video this week where Mitt told a voter that he would repeal Obamacare...FWIW, right?
Romney doesn’t telling a little white lie to get little white votes. All the black votes belong to Obama.

Wouldn't hurt...
$6 a gallon will get him un-elected.
$8 or $9 will have pitchfork mobs out on Pennsylvania Ave.
I pray to God the gas price is $5 on election day so we can get rid of this muzzie lovin commie once and for all.
I agree....short term pain....long term, it may save our country.
If the price of gas is $5 or more at the pump that day and the voters have paid a lot of money for a few gallons of gas that day, a lot of voters will be in an angry mood when they go to their voting sites and enter their voting booths.
I would think that many of these angry gas buyers will take out their anger in the voting booth by voting against Obama.
