Gas could be $20 per gallon, but CA and NY will still stand by their beloved democrats. They are forever out of play insofar as Presidential elections are concerned.
Might as well throw Connecticut into this discussion.
“Seriously, Will New York & California Vote For Obama Despite $4.50 & $5.00 Gas?”
Seriously, yes, they will.
Many New Yorkers (liberal city-dwellers) don’t even -own- cars, and many other liberals are hard-left-wingers who will NEVER vote for a Republican (they would gladly vote for the certified Communists before they could stoop to voting for the GOP).
California is so loony-liberal that they’ll swallow $10-a-gallon gas before they confront the possibility that their political beliefs may be in conflict with economic realities. Even then, they will blame the high cost of fuel on the “evil Republicans” and the greedy oil companies….
I live in New York State.
Though the area I am in is solidly “red” I can assure you Obama is safe in NY.
We have huge urban populations that don’t drive and get gubmint checks.
Obama wins NY without breaking a sweat.
Yeh the will because Baraky told them it isn’t his fault.
They are going to sit back and wait for the magic algae gas.
