Yup and just yesterday I had the opportunity to corner a bunch of represenatives for the presidential candidates and ask them why Republicans have failed to use the energy issue in this campaign against Democrats.
For a while they misinterpreted my question to mean that I was interested in their candidates position regarding energy and I corrected all of them and emphasized that I was asking from the standpoint of a Republican being interested in defeating Democrats in elections and wondering why they have failed to use the issue. This is a winning issue IF we keep beating the idiot voters over their heads that it is the DEMOCRATS who are blocking new production of oil and the building of refineries.
I pointed out that Republicans have earned the title of the "Stupid" party.

Of course, we not only do not beat idiot voters over their collective heads (precisely what they need). ..these Repubs do not even posit the argument; the problem and it's solution.
Bet they loved being called the 'Stupid Party'. . .You were kind to them. Could be called worse, for sure. ;^)
