Yup. Bring back 55. And engine governors. And ban cars that don't get more than 50mpg.

The Carter years were glorious.

This stupidity on Hillary's part must have the Democrat hierarchy in apoplexy. There is no better way to lose every state south of Maryland and west of Pennsylvania (and I include California, Oregon, and Washington) than to propose reimpositon of the 55 mph speed limit. A RINO like Giuliani or McCain would score a 400+ electoral vote victory, and 55%+ in the popular vote. Frankly, they could ignore the Christian Right or limited government conservatives, for an opponent this far out of touch with electoral reality would not impel Giuliani or McCain to worry about them.

Maybe the MSM/Democrat promotion of Senator Obama is more than a idle thought on their part.

The 55 MPH limit was signed by Nixon, not Carter.
